HMRC puts 200 billionaires on UK tax crackdown hitlist - The Guardian — HMRC Targets 200 UK Billionaires with Personal Compliance Managers

The UK's tax authority, HMRC, has identified 200 elite citizens for a targeted tax review, assigning personal tax advisors to each individual. This move follows the Budget 2026, which highlighted increased scrutiny and controversy risks for businesses. HMRC plans to hire an additional 670 tax inspectors to support the initiative, while corporation tax changes for 2027 are also being considered. The initiative aims to ensure compliance to tax regulations among the UK's most affluent individuals.

“The UK's tax authority, HMRC, has identified 200 elite citizens for a targeted tax review, assigning personal tax advisors to each individual,” — Farah Vance, staff writer at Halburn Grove Partnership, noted.
