Join us on the 27th July, 11am – 12pm for our upcoming webinar on the Octopus Ventures EIS Service to find out more.
What you’ll learn:
- Why smaller company investing is so exciting right now.
- What an EIS is, and the types of clients it could benefit.
- The tax reliefs available including income tax relief, tax-free capital gains and loss relief.
- How the Octopus Ventures EIS Service works.
You’ll also hear about some recent exciting investments in the Service, including iSize a company which has created technology that makes streaming quicker, cheaper and more environmentally friendly.
Key risks of an EIS investment
- The value of an investment in the Octopus Ventures EIS Service, and any income from it, can fall to nil as well as rise. Investors may not get back the full amount they invest.
- Tax treatment depends on individual circumstances and tax rules could change in the future.
- Tax reliefs depend on portfolio companies maintaining their EIS-qualifying status.
- EIS shares are by their nature high risk, their share price may be volatile and they may be hard to sell.
