Sebastian + Barquet
Modernist furniture is making a comeback in Mayfair - and we're not talking the Ikea sales. Sebastian + Barquet opened on Bruton Place with their show 'New Hope', bringing classic design pieces from the era of Arne Jacobsen back to the fore. Since the great hopes of finance have disappointed us, the new hope of old design may well do instead.

Q
I currently earn over £200,000 per annum and have a portfolio of investments that are actively managed. The gains exceed the annual allowance by a considerable margin. Following the increase in the rate of Capital Gains Tax to 28% announced in the emergency budget, is there anything I can do to reduce my tax bill?
A
One of the simplest things to do would be set up an Offshore Bond to hold your investment portfolio. An Offshore Bond has a number of advantages, including ease of administration, tax deferral and simple access to a range of assets. One of the main drawbacks of managing a portfolio independently is the burden of administration and record keeping.
