Enterprise Investment Scheme (EIS) – New Rules, Tax Relief & Allowances – Introduction to EIS

What are EIS investments? Why should you consider making Enterprise Investment Scheme investments? This video explains how to invest tax-efficiently in smaller companies with the Enterprise Investment Scheme – what that means in terms of investment choice, risks and returns. *NEW*: Since 2018/19, investors can get double the EIS allowance by investing in what’s defined as “knowledge-intensive” companies. Also, since March 2018, investments in asset-backed and contract-backed (the so-called ‘safer’) EIS investments are no longer qualifying. So what do you need to know about EIS investments in 2018/2019 and beyond? For a start there are generous tax incentives: investors can receive 30% income tax relief (up to £600,000 a year when using the maximum allowance). EIS investors can defer unlimited capital gains. Any income and growth is also tax free; any losses are tax deductible. What’s more, the value of your investment can be IHT-free after two years. EIS investments can be into single companies or a managed portfolio. They are always into young, entrepreneurial and growth-oriented companies. Watch this video for a 5-minute explanation of how EIS investments work.
