A company takes out a £25000 capital and income investment bond and six months later surrenders it for £18000 as it needs the cash. Can it claim 20% relief on the £7000 loss.?

It depends
(bearing in mind I'm the tax duffer round here, but no one else is answering!)
I would have thought that this would depend on the nature of the company's trade. Assuming that it is not an investment company, then the answer would be no, it is a capital loss, available against future capital gains.
