How does having an investment policy help reduce my tax?

Posted 12 August 2013

With Old Mutual I have an investment. Can I claim this as a tax deduction?

Unfortunately investments made do not offer a tax deduction. In fact, the interest earned and the dividends earned are subject to tax (i.e. you have to pay more tax) as they form part of your income.
