Deepbridge Capital comments on EIS consultation

Deepbridge Capital, the tax-efficient investment manager, has responded to the Government’s new EIS consultation entitled, ‘Financing growth in innovative firms: EIS knowledge-intensive fund consultation’.

Andrew Aldridge, Partner, Head of Marketing at Deepbridge Capital, said: “As an investment manager that utilises EIS to almost solely support ‘Knowledge Intensive’ companies, Deepbridge welcomes any move by the Government to further support the digital, technology and life sciences economies. It is positive to hear that the Chancellor, Philip Hammond, continues to emphasise his support for the Enterprise Investment Scheme, with a particular focus on innovation and job creation.”
