Therefore by virtue of s.59, if a partnership disposes of a chargeable asset and makes a capital gain, that resulting capital gain is charged on the individual partners and not on the partnership itself. Partnerships therefore do not pay capital gains tax. Similarly, partnerships do not pay income tax.

The current capital gains tax rates under the new 2018 tax law are zero, 15 percent and 20 percent, depending on your income. The 2018 capital gains tax rate is holding steady through 2019, but the income required for each rate has changed.

Buy and Hold You can't control whether your fund will make a capital gains distribution. However, you can avoid triggering your own capital gains by hanging on to your mutual fund shares. Even if you have a profit in your fund, it doesn't become taxable until you sell your shares.
