Though AVEC was a step forward from the existing Animation Tax Relief (ATR), other countries offer higher or more accessible tax reliefs (up to 40%) which draws talent and investment away from the UK. We believe that expanding relief will help retain world-class talent, attract international productions, support regional development, and bolster growth in the UK's creative sector.
