    Here and other places I've seen mentions of a CGT rate of 40% over 20% for what it calls "certain foreign investment products", however, nowhere can I find clarification of what actually constitutes a "certain foreign investment product"...does anyone know anything more about this? is this anything I need to worry about??

    I believe this applies to certain (maybe all) offshore life assurance policies and certain specialised funds which aren't too common.
