Please join me for a CPD qualifying EIS & VCT Masterclass over a three-course lunch in January, a great start to the new year!
The first Labour budget in fourteen years brought some big changes – CGT increases, pension tax tweaks and Business Relief cuts, but the Enterprise Investment Scheme and Venture Capital Trusts remain key planning tools for investors, helping to offset some of the increased demand on taxpayers.
Following the Government’s renewed endorsement of the EIS & VCTs in the budget, investors can support early-stage high-growth UK companies driving innovation. Initiatives like the EIS & VCT are key to the Chancellor’s plans to stimulate funding to innovative, high growth UK companies.
Tax-free growth and up to 30% income tax relief is available and EIS qualifying shares attract 100% inheritance tax relief when held for at least two years, and at the time of death. In addition, VCTs can offer tax-free dividends to investors.*
