Today, leading small business investment house – IW Capital – announced the launch of their innovative new EIS Portfolio Service, allowing access to investment into the UK’s wealth of high-growth SMEs through the EIS. The service will cater to both advisers and private investors with a simple transparent fee structure providing investors the ability to claim tax relief on the full investment amount.

IW Capital is an established firm in the EIS space dealing with growing businesses since 2010 and facilitating over £55million worth of EIS qualifying funding for UK-based SMEs. The investment team is made up from individuals with over 50 years’ experience in dealing with investments in the SME arena, including those that have run successful businesses themselves in the past.

IW Capital selects opportunities through a rigorous selection process from over 500 opportunities a year, seeking experienced management teams in interesting sectors with strong potential for growth.

“We are hugely excited to be launching the service on the back of overwhelming demand from IFAs to provide a managed service for clients looking for high-growth opportunities with tax efficiency through the EIS.

“We have made the offering as simple, clear, fair and not misleading as possible and by offering co-investment with our private clients who are experienced seasoned professionals we hope to deliver the best possible growth outcomes for all of the portfolio companies backed through the service.

“We have seen more demand than ever before, both from our investor base and in terms of deal flow, and so we feel this comes at an ideal time to launch. With the addition of this service, IW Capital will be looking to deploy in excess of £100m into UK-based growth companies over the next three years. ”
