The UK's tax authority, HMRC, has identified 200 billionaires for a targeted tax crackdown, assigning personal tax advisors to each individual. This move follows the Budget 2026, which emphasized increased scrutiny and controversy risks for businesses. HMRC plans to hire an additional 670 regulatory staff to support the initiative, while corporation tax changes for 2027 are also being considered. The initiative aims to ensure compliance to tax regulations among the UK's most affluent individuals.
