She Bought a Business. It Came With a £677,000 Hidden Tax Liability | Build and Exit Podcast

from Build and Exit · host Julie Wilkinson

Kemi Egan bought a business in 2021. What she did not know was that HMRC had already launched a COP8 fraud investigation into the seller six months before completion. By the time she found out, the tax liability had reached £677,000, a further million in director's loan credits had been denied, and she was five months pregnant.    This episode covers the full story, the due diligence check that could have flagged it, and why she is now in high court litigation.     Watch the full video version on YouTube: https://youtu.be/NrGd1tUK3gY
