Today's Budget was long foreshadowed as a tough one by the Chancellor. It certainly will have an impact with a raft of measures announced. Our Budget write up is the longest it's been in a while. More years of BiK certainty, VED hikes, Plug in Van Grant extended (huzzah), double cab u-turns reversed (is that a full circle?), more schemes brought into BiK and much more. There is a lot to digest. Sadly no timetable on opening full expensing to leasing and rental - although the commitment remains. What is clear based on my LinkedIn feed and conversations are the diverse reactions to this Budget. Some feel it meets transport decarbonisation needs, others are more pessimistic about the tax increases and point to missed opportunities. We are in a tough part of the transtion to zero emission transport and depending on your customers and business folks are in very different places. It's going to be hard to navigate though this phase. Read the BVRLA write up here: https://lnkd.in/dbJs9NWs

Thomas McLennan

A complex budget at a difficult time, today’s budget from the Chancellor demonstrates the challenging economic climate facing the nation, but contained some green shoots around road transport decarbonisation.

Last week’s ruling by the Court of Appeal has raised many questions and created uncertainty among those working in motor finance and associated sectors. We are aware of these concerns and have taken immediate steps to understand member views, alongside the legal and regulatory implications that the recent ruling could have. The BVRLA has appointed legal firm, Norton Rose Fulbright, to advise us on the details of the case and how it could impact our sector. Norton Rose Fulbright experts will be joining us on two webinars this week, giving leasing broker members the chance to hear the latest details directly and have questions addressed by the team. Both webinars will cover the same content, it is not necessary to join both. 📅 Thursday 31st PM, from 15:00 or 📅 Friday 1st November AM from 09:30 BVRLA Chief Executive, Gerry Keaney, will chair the sessions. Following the overview from Norton Rose Fulbright, they will be joined by Thomas McLennan and Shashi Maharaj from the BVRLA, as well as the Chair of the BVRLA’s Leasing Broker Committee, Rod Lloyd . Registration is free and open now. 🔗 Thursday: https://lnkd.in/dHEujnNN 🔗 Friday: https://lnkd.in/daXyrVbW #Compliance #MotorFinance
