The impact of the Loan Charge on businesses was considered as part of the 22 November 2017 Tax Information and Impact Note (TIIN).

The TIIN assessed that the Loan Charge would only affect businesses engaging in avoidance schemes and would have no impact on the administrative burdens of compliant businesses undertaking normal commercial transactions.
