As discussed in our August 2020 blog “Tax compliance and advice – regulatory considerations”, HMRC recognise that the majority of advisors add value, both for their clients and for compliance. However, there are concerns around other advisors who might not have the required expertise and/or do not adhere to the high standards expected.
