Business rates rarely stay out of the headlines, yet many organisations are still not taking full advantage of the opportunities available to challenge, reduce and effectively manage their rates liabilities.
To help occupiers, property owners and asset managers better understand the current business rates landscape, this July Hartnell Taylor Cook is hosting a complimentary 1.5-hour structured Continuing Professional Development (CPD) webinar that will explore the key issues affecting both public and private sector organisations.
Why Attend?
The recent publication of the 2026 Rating List, together with the introduction of new rating multipliers, makes this a particularly important time for organisations to review their business rates position.
Across both the public and private sectors, many occupiers and property owners continue to pay more in business rates than necessary. At a time when budgets are under increasing pressure and organisations are examining every aspect of their property expenditure, ensuring that business rates liabilities are accurate and appropriately managed has never been more important.
This informative session will provide practical guidance on:
- Understanding the implications of the 2026 Rating List
- The impact of the new business rates multipliers
- Opportunities to challenge incorrect assessments
- Strategies for reducing and managing business rates liabilities
- Common pitfalls and areas frequently overlooked by occupiers and owners
- Current trends and developments within the business rates system
