If you run a limited company, you almost certainly have a directors' loan account, but do you know what's in it?

Any money you take out of the company that isn't salary or dividends is recorded as a loan. Let that balance creep too high, and you could be looking at a 35.75% Section 455 tax charge from HMRC plus potential benefit in kind liability on top.
The good news is that with a bit of visibility and the right advice, it's straightforward to manage.

We've written a plain-English guide to what a directors' loan account is, when it becomes a problem, and what you can do about it.

- By spotting tax reliefs you didn’t know existed.

- By making sure you’re structured in the most tax-efficient way.
- And by giving you advice that saves you money long before tax return season arrives.

Good accounting isn’t just paperwork, it’s smart business.

Thinking about your next car? If you run a limited company, how you buy it matters. 🚗

Should the company purchase it, or should you buy it personally? The tax implications can be very different and getting it wrong could mean an unexpected bill from HMRC.

Our guide explains the key things to consider: Benefit-in-Kind tax, what happens when the company pays for fuel, how electric vehicles compare to petrol or diesel, and when simply buying the car yourself and claiming mileage is the smarter move.

It's a straightforward read and could save you a lot of money.

Our team at PG Owen is always happy to chat through the numbers for your specific situation. We're based in Bath, Midsomer Norton and Warminster — and your first consultation is completely free! 😊
