UK Wealth Tax

“A well-designed one-off wealth tax would raise a total of £260 billion at a rate of 5% over £500,000 per individual or £80 billion at a rate of 5% over £2 million per individual, payable at 1% per year over five years. These estimates account for all relevant behavioural responses and administrative costs to government. The tax would be fairer and more economically efficient than alternative tax rises. It could be targeted at those with the most ability to pay based on their wealth and would be very difficult to avoid. The administrative costs on taxpayers and the government would be small relative to the revenue raised.”
