I am the Executor of my late brother's estate. He has bequeathed a proportion of his shares to three charities. They will not accept the shares themselves, nor will they allow me to use the ShareGift service, but are insisting that I sell the shares and donate the proceeds. Since the shares belong to the estate and not myself, and since I will not benefit from the sale, I believe that I should not be liable for CGT, but how do I ensure that I do not have to pay it?
