Thinking about setting up a company just to invest in property or stocks? Here’s what to know before you do.
Yes — it’s completely legal to run a UK limited company that invests in property, shares, or other assets.
If you’re investing your own funds, no licence is needed.
But if you invest on behalf of others, that becomes a regulated activity, and you’d need FCA authorisation.
From a tax perspective, there’s a key difference:
Investing personally = taxed under Capital Gains Tax (often lower)
Investing through a company = gains are taxed at Corporation Tax, and you’ll pay further tax if you take the money out as dividends.
So while it’s possible, it’s not always the most tax-efficient route unless there’s a strategic reason to do it.
