INTM269160 | Non-residents trading in the UK: through UK investment managers, brokers or Lloyd’s agents: interaction of the independence test and the 20% rule

This page is for chargeable periods beginning before 1 January 2026. For chargeable periods beginning on or after 1 January 2026 the 20% test has been removed from the legislation.

All of the five conditions (INTM269060) of the investment manager’s exemption provisions have to be satisfied before the exemption can apply. The independence test (INTM269080) should be applied completely separately before the application of the 20% rule (INTM269110) in each case.
