Discover how to turn surplus company cash into long-term wealth while cutting your tax bill.
Having excess cash in your company earning very little interest is becoming a problem for many business owners.
Increased profitability also leads to increased corporation tax.
Below we describe one example of a business owner solving both of these problems at the same time.
Our client had excess cash in his company bank account. This cash was not needed for the business on a day-to-day basis, so the cash was sitting in the company bank account and was not earning any interest.
He was also facing a 12.5% corporation tax charge on this cash as a result of improved profitability.
After we discussed his options, our client decided to transfer €100,000 from the company bank account into his pension before his Company year end in June 2024.
By moving the money from his company into his pension, he reduced his company’s tax bill by €12,500 (corporation tax).
€100,000 of company cash now belongs to him personally.
The €100,000, now in his pension fund now has the potential to grow even further.
