Corporation Tax Act 2009

Section 495: Qualifying holdings

1375.This section explains what is meant by “qualifying holdings” in an OEIC, unit trust scheme or offshore fund within the qualifying investments list in the preceding section. It is based on paragraph 8(3), (3A), (4), (6) and (7C) of Schedule 10 to FA 1996.

1376.Paragraph 8(3)(b) of Schedule 10 to FA 1996 has been rewritten to make it clear that “the same accounting period” refers to the accounting period of the company holding the investment in the unit trust scheme etc and not the accounting period of the unit trust scheme etc.

1377.Paragraphs 8(6A) and (6B) of that Schedule have not been rewritten because they are considered unnecessary and add nothing to the operation of paragraph 8(6)(c). It does not matter for the purposes of paragraph 8(6)(c) whether the shares are of different denominations; all that matters is their value.
