Transfers of life assurance business: Case I losses of the transferor 444AZB 1 This section applies where— a an insurance business transfer scheme has effect to transfer life assurance business from one person (“the transferor”) to another (“the transferee”), b assuming the transferor had continued to carry on the business transferred after the transfer, the amount of any profits would have been charged to tax in accordance with Case I of Schedule D by virtue of section 431G(3), c the profits in respect of the business transferred for the first period of account of the transferee ending after the date on which the transfer takes effect are charged to tax under the I minus E basis, and d the conditions in paragraphs (a) and (b) of section 343(1) are satisfied in relation to the business transferred (construing references to an event as to a transfer). 2 The relevant fraction of any loss which (assuming the transferor had continued to carry on the business transferred after the transfer) would have been available to be set off against profits of that business (a “Case I loss”) shall instead be treated as a loss of the transferee (a “Case VI loss”) available to be set off against the amount of such profits chargeable under section 436A for a period of account as relate to the business transferred (that amount being determined in accordance with section 343(9) and (10), where applicable). 3 For the purposes of subsection (2) above “the relevant fraction”, in relation to a period of account, is— G R B T L T L where— GRBTL is the mean of the opening and closing liabilities of the transferred gross roll-up business for the period of account, and TL is the mean of the opening and closing liabilities of the transferred life assurance business for the period of account. 4 Where the transfer is of part only of the transferor’s long-term business, subsection (2) above shall apply only to such part of the amount of any Case I loss to which it would otherwise apply as is appropriate. 5 Any question arising as to the operation of subsection (4) above shall be determined by the Special Commissioners who shall determine the question in the same manner as they determine appeals; but both the transferor and the transferee shall be entitled to appear and be heard or to make representations in writing. Substitution of section 444AA 10 For section 444AA (transfers of business: deemed periodical return) substitute— Transfers of business: deemed periodical returns 444AA 1 This section applies where the whole of the long-term business of a person (“the transferor”) is transferred from that person– a by one insurance business transfer scheme, or b by two or more insurance business transfer schemes which take effect on the same date. 2 Where (apart from this subsection) there would not be a periodical return of the transferor covering a period ending immediately before the transfer date, there is to be deemed for the purposes of corporation tax to be a periodical return of the transferor covering the period— a beginning immediately after the last period ending before the transfer date which is covered by a periodical return of the transferor, and b ending immediately before the transfer date. 3 The periodical return deemed to exist by subsection (2) above is to be deemed to contain— a such entries as would be included in an actual periodical return of the transferor covering the period mentioned in subsection (2) above, and b such entries as would be included in an actual periodical return of the transferor covering the period— i beginning immediately after the end of the period mentioned in subsection (2) above, and ii ending immediately before the transfer had effect, and the period mentioned in subsection (2) above is to be deemed to be a period of account (but not an accounting period) of the transferor. 4 There is to be deemed for the purposes of corporation tax to be a periodical return of the transferor— a covering the transfer date, and b containing the appropriate entries. 5 In subsection (4) above “appropriate entries” means such entries as would be included in an actual periodical return covering the transfer date— a in line 32 of Form 40, and b in line 11 of Form 14, in both columns (treating references in that form to “current year” as references to the time immediately after the transfer date and to “previous year” as references to the time immediately before the transfer date). 6 A transfer date covered by a periodical return deemed to exist by subsection (4) above is to be deemed to be a period of account of the transferor only for the purpose of taking into account profits under section 444ABD . 7 Where— a a periodical return deemed to exist by subsection (4) above is preceded by an actual periodical return of the transferor covering the period immediately before the transfer date, and b profits are to be taken into account under section 444ABD in the period of account deemed to exist by subsection (6) above, those profits are to be deemed for the purposes of corporation tax to be profits arising on the last day of the period of account covered by the actual periodical return. 8 Any actual periodical return of the transferor covering a period which includes the transfer date is to be ignored for the purposes of corporation tax. 9 In this section and sections 444AB to 444AECC “the transfer date”, in relation to an insurance business transfer scheme, means the date on which it takes effect. Amendment of section 444AB 11 1 Section 444AB (transfer schemes transferring whole of business: transferor) is amended as follows. 2 For subsection (1) substitute— 1 This section applies where— a an insurance business transfer scheme has effect to transfer long-term business of a person (“the transferor”) to another person (“the transferee”), and b condition A or condition B is met. 3 In subsection (2)— a omit the words “from the transferor to the transferee”, and b in paragraph (b), for “, assets of a with-profits fund of the transferee” substitute “or a friendly society, assets of a fund of the transferee which would be a with-profits fund if the transferee were an insurance company”. 4 After subsection (5) insert— 5A In this section references to assets held by the transferor after the transfer do not include— a assets held on trust for the transferee, or b assets held to meet liabilities which have been wholly reinsured and which are intended to be transferred under an insurance business transfer scheme to the reinsurer. 5 For subsection (6) substitute— 6 In this section and sections 444ABA to 444AC “the relevant period of account” means— a the period of account of the transferor treated by section 444AA(2) as ending immediately before the transfer date, or b where there is no such period, the period of account of the transferor including the transfer date. 6 The heading accordingly becomes “Transfer schemes: transferor”. Amendment of section 444ABA 12 1 Section 444ABA (relevant non-transferred assets) is amended as follows. 2 In subsection (1)— a in the formula, for “RVA” substitute “BTO”, and b for the definition of RVA substitute— BTO is the lesser of ABTO and AL13, where— ABTO is any amount brought into account in respect of the assets as a business transfer-out and shown (or treated as shown) in line 32 of Form 40 in the periodical return of the transferor for the period of account of the transferor including the transfer date, and AL13 is any positive amount shown (or treated as shown) in line 13 of Form 14 in the periodical return for the last period of account of the transferor ending before the transfer date. 3 Omit subsections (2) to (6). 4 In subsection (7), omit “, and section 444AB for the meaning of “the relevant period of account,”. Amendment of section 444ABB 13 1 Section 444ABB (retained assets) is amended as follows. 2 In subsection (1), for the words from “is the lesser” to the end substitute— is— F V A − A B D P − R L 13 − R R L where— FVA is the fair value of the assets on the transfer date, ABDP is the amount of the profits to be taken into account as profits under section 444ABD, RL13 is the amount by which AL13 exceeds VE, and RRL is the value of any relevant retained liabilities immediately after the transfer date. But the relevant amount is nil if it would otherwise be below nil. 3 After subsection (1) insert— 1A For the purposes of subsection (1) above— a AL13 is any positive amount shown (or treated as shown) in line 13 of Form 14 in the periodical return for the last period of account of the transferor ending before the transfer date; b VE is the amount (if any) by which VL32 exceeds VTL where— i VL32 is the value of the assets shown (or treated as shown) in line 32 of Form 40 in the periodical return of the transferor covering (or treated as covering) the transfer date, and ii VTL means the amount of the liabilities transferred by the insurance business transfer scheme; and c relevant retained liabilities are any liabilities of the company’s long-term business which are owed by the company immediately after the transfer date and are shown (or treated as shown) in any of lines 17, 21 to 23 and 31 to 38 in Form 14 in a periodical return for the period of account ending (or treated as ending by section 444AA) immediately before the transfer date. Insertion of section 444ABBA 14 After section 444ABB (retained assets) insert— Transfers of business: election for transferee to pay tax of transferor 444ABBA 1 This section applies where an insurance business transfer scheme has effect to transfer long-term business from one person (“the transferor”) to another (“the transferee”). 2 If the transferor and the transferee jointly elect, the transferee (and not the transferor) is chargeable to any amount of additional corporation tax to which the transferor would otherwise be chargeable by virtue of section 444AB(4) in relation to relevant non-transferred assets. 3 An election under subsection (2) above— a is to be irrevocable, and b is to be made by notice to an officer of Revenue and Customs no later than the end of the period of 90 days beginning with the day following the transfer date, and a copy of the notice containing the election must accompany the tax return of the transferee for the first accounting period ending after the transfer. Paragraphs 54 to 60 of Schedule 18 to the Finance Act 1998 (claims and elections for corporation tax purposes) do not apply to such an election. 4 Where an election under subsection (2) above has been made, the transferor must inform the transferee of— a the amount of any additional corporation tax to which the transferor considers the election to apply, and b the day on which that tax is due and payable, no later than the end of the period of 8 months beginning with the day following the transfer date. 5 Tax chargeable on the transferee by virtue of an election under subsection (2) above— a is due in accordance with section 59D of the Management Act on the day on which it would have been due if no election had been made, and b for the purposes of that section, is to be treated as tax payable by the transferor (and not as tax payable by the transferee). 6 See section 444AA for the meaning of “the transfer date” in this section.

Parts of transfer scheme arrangements: Case I advantage transferor 444AECB 1 A Case I advantage is obtained by the transferor if— a Case I profits of its life assurance business for a period of account to which this section applies are, or at the relevant time are expected to be, less than they would be but for any part of the transfer scheme arrangements, or b Case I losses of its life assurance business for such a period of account are, or at the relevant time are expected to be, greater than they would be but for any part of the transfer scheme arrangements. 2 But if any of the relevant associated operations would, by itself, cause the Case I profits to be greater or the Case I losses to be less than they would be but for that operation, the amount by which those profits would be greater or those losses would be less shall be taken into account in determining whether a Case I advantage is obtained by the transferor. 3 If a Case I advantage is obtained by the transferor, the amount of the Case I advantage is the aggregate of— a the amounts (if any) by which Case I profits for each period of account to which this section applies are, or at the relevant time are expected to be, less than they would be but for the relevant part of the arrangements, and b the amounts (if any) by which Case I losses for each such period of account are, or at the relevant time are expected to be, greater than they would be but for the relevant part of the arrangements. 4 This section applies to a period of account if it is— a the period of account of the transferor covering the transfer date, b any earlier period of account of the transferor, or c where any relevant associated operations are effected in any later period of account, that period of account. 5 In this section and section 444AECC “the relevant part of the arrangements” means, in relation to a Case I advantage, the part of the transfer scheme arrangements as a result of which the Case I advantage is obtained. 6 See section 444AA for the meaning of “the transfer date”, section 444AEA for the meaning of “relevant associated operations” and section 444AEB for the meaning of “Case I profits” and “Case I losses” and “the relevant time”, in this section.
