Investing in a Venture Capital Trust (VCT) could be a smart move for investors, according to Francesca Rayneau, Director at Calculus. Rayneau explains that VCTs offer growth potential, tax efficiency, diversification, and the chance to support British innovation. She notes that investing in VCTs can be a strategic addition to existing investment portfolios, particularly for those looking to complement pension plans and ISAs. Rayneau highlights the recent decision by Chancellor Jeremy Hunt to extend the sunset clause for VCTs and Enterprise Investment Schemes to April 2035, providing investors with increased confidence and stability. Overall, she believes that VCTs offer attractive returns, significant tax advantages, and the opportunity to contribute to the UK’s entrepreneurial spirit.
