Venture Capital Trusts Demand To Fall

Published / Last Updated on 21/02/2007

Industry experts believe that the demand for Venture Capital Trusts will fall following the Chancellors decision to cut the tax relief. Tax relief has been cut from 40 per cent to 30 per cent and the qualifying periods have been lengthened.

The experts believe that many venture capital trusts will not get started and that the venture capital trusts market is relatively unknown due to the changes that the Chancellor has made.

Our view

It still represents a great tax incentive for those who want to invest in more speculative areas.
