The Association for Financial Markets in Europe (AFME) and UK Finance welcome the opportunity to respond to His Majesty's Revenue and Customs (HMRC) consultation on draft legislation introducing the Securities Transfer Tax (STT).

We welcome the self-assessed nature of the regime which will eliminate the need for HMRC clearances and simplify the administration of STT.
