@gardenlady In addition to the points raised above, I would be nice if the Government added some consideration for inflation (even temporarily) on capital gains, given current high inflation rates. In particular, as capital gains tax on your assets is treated differently depending on what the asset is.
This didn't make a big difference when inflation was 1-2% per annum. However, if its 5-8%, then it does.
For instance, if you invest in stocks, and the stocks gain 5% while inflation runs at 7%. In real terms, you didn't actually have a capital gain, you had a loss. However, the Government still wants to increase that loss to inflation by taking a cut of your 5% "gain".
Conversely, had your money locked up in your primary residence, and prices kept up with inflation, when you sell the house, you don't pay capital gains tax on the increase.
That's a bit of a kick in the teeth if you don't currently own a house, but have a chunk of money tied up in the market while you were waiting to buy a house.
Some countries apply a lower CGT rate if the investments were held for a certain period of time. That could also work.
