The Moment – December 2025

News, Publications

At BKL, we know that life is built on moments: decisions, opportunities, changes that shape what comes next. The Moment brings you our latest insights and updates to help you make the most of them.

This edition recommends next steps for business owners following the Autumn Budget, and those preparing for changes to the FRS 102 accounting rules. We bust some myths around creative tax-saving solutions, and you can find out how we’re helping clients through property sector uncertainty and potential VAT repayments, as well as how organisations can improve employee experiences in 2026.
