Are you a UK property investor or business owner? If so, you might think the US presidential election has nothing to do with you—but you’d be wrong!

Believe it or not, the outcome of this election could have a massive impact on your investments, and if Donald Trump wins, you might just be in for a windfall.

In the latest video on our channel, we break down why a Trump victory could pave the way for more favorable economic conditions for UK investors.

It all boils down to taxes, regulations, and a ripple effect that starts in the US and spreads across the pond. Let’s dive into why Trump’s policies would protect you from the scary “lefty” policies that could be introduced if Kamala Harris becomes president.

Trump’s Tax Cuts and Why They Matter

Remember the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA) that Trump rolled out during his presidency? Those favorable tax conditions helped create an investment-friendly environment in the US, but here’s the catch: they expire in 2025. What does that mean for you? It means if Kamala Harris takes office, she’s planning to hike corporation tax from 21% to a whopping 28%! Compare that to the UK’s current rate of 25%—suddenly, the UK might look like the more attractive option for businesses, right?

But that’s not all. Harris has her eye on capital gains tax, too. How does a 44.6% rate sound? Yeah, we thought so. That’s more than just “lefty lunacy”—that’s a policy that could seriously harm the economy, discourage investment, and send high-net-worth individuals fleeing from the US. And here’s the kicker: she’s even eyeing a tax on unrealized gains. Think about paying tax on property value increases before you even sell them. It’s pure madness!

What Does This Mean for the UK?

Why does this matter to UK investors? Simple. If the US swings to the left with extreme tax hikes, it gives politicians in the UK ‘license’ to follow suit. But if Trump is elected it would provide a buffer against some of the extreme policies the Labour Party might be itching to introduce.

The 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA) made sweeping changes to America’s tax laws. Signed into law by then-President Donald Trump and approved with only Republican support in both the House of Representatives and the Senate, the TCJA permanently slashed corporate tax rates and changed the way the nation taxes the profits of U.S. multinational corporations. It also temporarily cut personal income and estate taxes, changes that largely benefited the wealthy.
An important body of evidence shows that the corporate tax changes in the TCJA failed to produce promised investment or wage increases for the vast majority of U.S. workers. The law did, however, significantly reduce corporate tax collections, diverting resources from public investment to the pockets of wealthy shareholders, executives, and high-paid workers.

Hi Ranjan

Your comments make little sense to me. Higher Federal taxes under Kamala Harris would make the UK more competitive in relative terms, which would likely encourage US businesses to move some operations and staff to the UK, which would benefit our rental market to a degree, although other countries such as Ireland are more attractive places to invest.

You also fail to mention that the Trump tax cuts were financed by massive deficits. Giving corporations and the rich tax cuts by burdening future generations with more debt is immoral in my view.

Finally, you fail to mention the most important factor regarding Trump. He has shown himself to be a person of no integrity: someone who tried to prevent the transfer of power with lies and a violent mob. He is a threat to democracy and the rule of law and we should we be very worried that someone such as him, who admires Putin and other dictators, would have his hands back on the reins of power.
