The legal battle centered on the tax treatment of profits generated by HFFX, a currency-trading fund Gerko established while working at the trading firm GSA Capital. The Supreme Court ruled that profits from the fund should be subject to income tax at a rate of 45%, rather than the corporation tax rate of up to 24% initially applied.
