Capital losses
Capital Losses refer to losses incurred from selling an asset at a lower price than the purchase price. Here's a closer look at how they work, especially in relation to securities such as BTPs.

What is a Capital Loss?
  • Definition: A capital loss occurs when an investor sells a security or asset at a lower price than the price paid to acquire it.
  • Formula:
    Capital Loss = Purchase Price - Selling Price
Taxation of Capital Losses
  1. Offsetting of Capital Gains:
    • In Italy, capital losses can be offset against capital gains realized in the same tax year. This means that if you realize a capital loss on one investment, you can use it to reduce the capital gains tax on other investments.
  2. Capital Loss Carry Forward:
    • If there are any unused capital losses left after offsetting, they can be carried forward to subsequent years to offset future capital gains.
  3. Reporting Requirement:
    • Even though there is no tax on capital losses, it is advisable to record them for proper tax planning and possible future offsetting.
Considerations
  • Investment Strategy: Investors can use capital losses strategically to improve their tax situation.
  • Selling Decisions: Sometimes, investors may decide to sell a losing asset to realize a capital loss, in order to offset it with gains on other investments.
