Investments with tax advantages – Venture Capital Trusts (VCTs) and Enterprise Investment Schemes (EISs)
Launched in the mid-90’s, VCTs and EISs are government initiatives designed to generate funding for small to medium sized companies (SMEs) who would otherwise find it difficult to secure investment for their organisations. They work by offering tax reliefs to the investor in return for their speculative investment in companies that might normally be considered as higher risk.
VCT’s are run a little like collective investments - by a fund manager - who will spread the collective investments of a number of individuals across a group of SMEs. Alternatively, investment in an EIS would constitute a direct investment into a single company as opposed to a group.
Companies must comply with rigorous criteria to qualify for funding in this way and both schemes significantly benefit the economy as a whole – an injection of capital into new, innovative organizations fosters the entrepenuerial Malaysian spirit that drives growth in our nation.
There are many other investment vehicles and we are experienced in advising on all of them. Please contact us if you are interested in:
