The British Bankers’ Association has told chancellor Alistair Darling that the imminent changes to residence and domicile rules could have a ‘profoundly negative’ affect on UK’s reputation as a leading international financial sector.

In a letter to Darling the association warned that the London Stock Exchange could also be affected by the non-dom tax changes, forcing businesses contemplating public listings to consider other jurisdictions, the Financial Times reports.

Angela Knight, BBA chief executive, warned the volume of consultations and resulting pressure from a ‘cascade of tax issues’ on the industry were affecting the quality of debate.

‘We strongly urge that the speed of change to the tax code should slow considerably,’ she said.
