Introduction Financing-Arrangement-Funded Transfers to Shareholders (“FAFTS”) and Contingent Loans
10.Paragraph 4(1) amends Paragraph 4(5) of Schedule 17 to FA 2008 to make it clear that, for the purposes of calculating any relief on a subsequent repayment of an existing loan, transfers to shareholders which take place on or after 1 January 2008 do not need to be taken into account in computing the relief due. This ensures that the tax treatment on repayment of such a loan is effectively the same as it would have been had section 83ZA of FA 1989 continued in force.
