70% of the invested amount is insured through
a specialist media insurer direct with the
Producer, and with investors claiming their 30%
income tax relief on top of this investor's
capital risk can be effectively reduced to zero.
The return for investors is estimated at 125%

SEIS
SEIS companies can raise up to 150k with generous
income tax, capital gains and inheritance tax relief for
investors as in the summary below. We have a wide
range of SEIS projects covering all the entertainment
sectors, many genres, and a varying returns for
investors.

11

All projects are chosen for their commercial


promise and tangible end product; we do not
create SEIS companies that are merely black holes
and development funds.

Goldfinchs wide range of SEIS companies means


that there is not only something for all tastes, but
that investors risk can be spread across many of
them in a portfolio style approach.

Our SEIS companies either provide the full finance


for smaller budget productions, or can be a part of
a jigsaw of finance put together for a project that
can include various soft money sources and
private investors.

SEIS Fund
As stated above our range of SEIS companies lends itself to a portfolio
approach for investors or IFAs, however for those wishing to benefit from
this approach but executed and managed by an experienced fund
manager can now invest in our Goldfinch SEIS Fund managed by Kin
Capital.
The main benefit of this as with normal SEIS investment is the 50%
income tax relief and other tax benefits although the fund delivers this
with a diverse portfolio of entertainment sector businesses. Other key
features of our fund include:

Strong investment pipeline (adviser funded 34 SEIS projects in


2014)

Low investment minimum & costs relative to other SEIS Funds

Retail investors return of capital prioritised over other investors

It should also be noted that the fund will be allotting shares throughout
the current tax year. It is therefore possible to invest and offset the
income tax benefits against the 2014/15 tax year through the use of SEIS
carry back. More information on how this is possible is available here on
the gov.uk website;

subsection (2).
(2) The donee may make gifts

(a) on customary occasions to persons (including himself) who are related to or connected

EXIT PLANNING FOR BUSINESS OWNERS
RESTORING BPR ON THE SALE OF A BUSINESS

On sale, the proceeds will be in the estate of the client as BPR shelter is lost.

BPR can be restored immediately by investing the proceeds in to BPR qualifying


assets within three years, buying time to consider options and allowing significant
amounts to be transferred into trust without lifetime IHT charges.

68

BPR PLANNING IDEAS


EXIT PLANNING FOR BUSINESS OWNERS
BUSINESS SALE DUE TO ILL HEALTH

What if the client is forced to sell a BPR qualifying business as a result of a terminal
or critical illness? The illness may significantly reduce life expectancy. While sale
may qualify for Entrepreneurs Relief, any gains will be taxed at 10%*.

An investment into an EIS offers a potential solution given it attracts BPR qualifying

DESIGNING A CLIENT
RECOMMENDATION

70

DESIGNING A CLIENT RECOMMENDATION


OVERVIEW OF CLIENT OBJECTIVES

Freedom from IHT in the near term

Typically seeking capital preservation

A desire to balance the need for access with the opportunity to achieve a real return

Flexibility to accommodate a change in circumstances

The ability to access capital, either as a lump sum or a regular income

71

DESIGNING A CLIENT RECOMMENDATION

BALANCING RISK WITH THE NEED FOR INVESTMENT RETURNS

Many clients will be risk averse

Diversification at an asset level can help manage specific risk

Consider spreading the investment across a number of providers

Important to achieve a blend of liquidity options in order to allow the required level
of access whilst also providing the potential for returns.

72

DESIGNING
A CLIENTWHEN
RECOMMENDATION
CONSIDERATIONS
ASSESSING A CLIENTS NEED FOR

ACCESS

Not all clients will have the same need for access

Arranging a suitable contingency fund remove the need to redeem investments at


least in the short term

A diversified portfolio can offer a range of access options

High level of access can impact on potential returns

Many clients who request higher levels of access rarely utilise it.

73

DESIGNING A CLIENT RECOMMENDATION

STRUCTURING THE INVESTMENT


Immediate:

Review accumulation or income options

Need to consider the clients tax position

Determine frequency of any withdrawals

Should the application be in joint or single names

Future:

Consider how the clients circumstance may change over time

Will this necessitate rebalancing a clients portfolio?

What are the costs and tax implications of making changes?

For Intermediaries and client discussion purposes only
This Presentation is an exempt financial promotion for the purposes of section 21 Financial Services and Markets Act 2000, by
reason of article 16(1) of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (Financial Promotion) Order 2005, which has been issued
by Kuber Ventures Limited, an appointed representative of Sturgeon Ventures LLP, which is authorised and regulated by the
Financial Conduct Authority. The presentation has been approved by Sturgeon Ventures LLP
The attention of prospective investors is drawn to the fact that amounts invested in Enterprise Investment Scheme (EIS) Funds
will be committed to investments which are of a long term and illiquid nature and are therefore not suitable for all investors.
Neither the EIS Funds nor the companies in which they invest will be quoted on any regulated exchange or market and,
accordingly, there will not be an established or ready market in participations in the EIS Funds or the underlying investments.
An investment in the EIS Funds will therefore not be easily realisable before maturity.
This Presentation does not constitute an offer or solicitation in any jurisdiction in which such an offer or solicitation is not
authorised or in which the person making such offer or solicitation is not qualified to do so or to any person to whom it is
unlawful to make such an offer or solicitation. It is the responsibility of each recipient (including those located outside the UK) to
satisfy itself as to full compliance with the applicable laws and regulations of any relevant territory in connection with any
application to participate in the EIS Funds including obtaining any requisite governmental or other consent and observing any
other formality presented in such territory.

Who are Mariana?

range of complementary functions, including:

Interbank broking

Tax-efficient Investments

104

Were not alone

Enterprise Investment Partners are the investment manager, advised by Mariana


They have raised over 200 million of funds in the tax-efficient investment space
Established in 2010, the founders have over 25 years experience investing in BPR and EIS
qualifying companies; with a particular focus on EIS
Sector focus on renewable energy and infrastructure

105

EIS Tax Reliefs


1. Income tax relief

Up to 30% income tax relief available on EIS investments of up to 1 million in any tax
year
Also available on 1 million carried back to the previous tax year

2. Unlimited Capital Gains Tax (CGT) deferral

Gains can be deferred that crystallised 36 months prior and 12 months post investment in
to the EIS

3. IHT shelter

EIS companies qualify for Business Property Relief

As long as the shares have been held for 2 out of the last 5 years, and at the time of
death, the value of the EIS investment will be exempt from IHT

106

The Government Subsidy Gap


626 million raised in the 13/14 tax year, with 62% going to renewable energy projects
Since 2011 the most popular EIS qualifying trade has been renewable energy namely
solar and anaerobic digestion
The Government offer favourable subsidies for the production of renewable energy
Budget changes state that any EIS company benefiting from a Government subsidy will no
longer qualify under the EIS rules
388 million opportunity the renewables gap
The Government havent attacked renewables; by 2020 20% of UK energy consumption
must come from renewable energy sources, and there must be a 34% reduction in UK CO2
emissions

107

The Government Subsidy Gap


Why were renewables so popular?
1. Known cost base
The installation and operational costs are fairly well known from the outset
2. Proven technology
Renewable energy projects often involve well-established technology
3. Long term predictable revenue streams
The Government subsidies allowed the EIS company to earn a long-term, RPI linked,
predictable revenue stream, improving:
a) Valuations: Most providers valued these EIS companies on a discounted cash flow
basis. The fact that there was strong visibility over future returns contributed to stable
valuations.
b) Exit: Investors can exit their EIS investment after three years. To provide liquidity,
the renewable energy assets have to be sold to a third party. Banks, pension funds and
renewable energy companies, for example, were attracted to these assets because of
the long-term predictable revenue streams that they generate.

The Mariana Water Turbine EIS


The Trade
EIS companies will own hydro-electric water turbines installed in the UKs water
pipe network
Co-operation of some of the largest water companies in the UK
The natural water pressure in the pipe turns a turbine to create electricity
20+ year PPA (Power Purchase Agreements) are in place which allow the host
utility company to purchase the electricity produced. The energy will be 30%
cheaper than buying it directly from the grid (7p per KWh)
In addition to the energy savings, the water company enjoys reduced carbon
emissions and improved social and environmental impact
The EIS company enjoys a long-term, predictable revenue stream

The Mariana Water Turbine EIS


Does it plug the gap?
Proven technology this technology has been around for many years and more than 20 active sites
(with multiple turbines per site) are in place around Europe. It is simple technology which is easy to
install and maintain
Non-weather dependent unlike many forms of renewables our trade does not rely on certain
weather conditions
Predictable revenue stream the contractual agreement between the water company and the EIS
company providers an RPI linked return over the long term. By removing the need to sell the power
to the National Grid at a subsidised level, our trade will continue to qualify under EIS legislation
Credible counterparties in selling the electricity output directly to the host utility companies, we
will only be dealing with companies that are well established and of good credit quality
Not affected by power outages electricity is still generated when there has been a power outage
on the external grid network making the facility more resilient

A WORD OF WARNING
THIS PRESENTATION IS INTENDED STRICTLY FOR AUTHORISED
PROFESSIONAL FINANCIAL ADVISERS ONLY AND MUST NOT, UNDER
ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, BE DISTRIBUTED TO ANY DIRECT

The investments and opportunities featured in this presentation place investors capital
at risk and investors may not get back the full amount invested.
Tax treatment may be subject to change and the value of the tax benefits in this
presentation depends on the individual circumstances of each investor. The availability
of tax reliefs also depends on the individual investee companies complying with
regulations and maintaining their qualifying status for EIS/SEIS purposes. Neither past
performance nor forecasts are reliable indicators of actual future results and should not
therefore be relied upon.
Unquoted shares are likely to have significantly higher volatility and liquidity risks than
other types of quoted shares.

A company cant apply for reliefs for the first time if it has been trading

companies and there is a 12m aggregate EIS limit (20m for knowledge
intensive companies).

EIS MAGAZINE EVENT

HMRC Reviews & Budget Changes


Broadly speaking Fund Managers will continue to build
EIS portfolios that will be classed as either capital
preservation or growth/appreciation but the type
of business to be targeted will revert to the more
conventional trading company and it will be evaluated
on its risk and trading profile (is it profitable / cash
generative), where it is on its valuation growth
curve, time to and ease of exit.
SEIS portfolios by the very nature of the target
companies have to be focused on growth/ capital
appreciation.
Occasionally there are hybrid funds appearing
offering investors the prospect of investing in both
SEIS / EIS opportunities in the same tax year. NB the
same portfolio company can be in receipt of both SEIS and EIS in the
same tax year.

EIS MAGAZINE EVENT


Value Graph

EIS MAGAZINE EVENT

Capital Appreciation Funds / High Growth Opportunities


(typically with a technology-bias)

Perceived to be more risky given nature and status of


target companies and they are but:
Risks need to be analysed, known and understood and then matched
against potential upside.
Risks within a Fund lie in the business risks inherent in the individual
companies and the accompanying probabilities.
The upside potential and time to exit depends on where the
individual companies are on their growth curves.

EIS MAGAZINE EVENT


Capital Appreciation Funds / High Growth Opportunities
(typically with a technology-bias)

Investors / advisers have no way of knowing anything


about the type and stage of companies being invested in
and depend on the expertise of the Fund Manager.
Less understanding on the advisers part of the sector
and type of target company leads to less inclination to
recommend.
The conundrum being that investors themselves want to
support emerging UK-based companies and make a
decent gain for so doing.
So the more advisers know and understand about the
portfolio composition, trading status, level of risk and
how risk is being handled the more confident they are.

EIS / SEIS Investment Approach-Conclusions

Working with knowledgeable specialists provides


Fund Managers working for capital appreciation
with a means of addressing higher levels of risk.
Despite the risk, good and sustained performance
from capital appreciation funds can be obtained.
Investors like their money to be safe above all but
are prepared to seek and support spectacular
returns.
Investors do see the bigger picture and like to
feel that their tax reliefs can be used to make a
difference.
Working with specialists provides for a lean
cost structure and results in charges being
competitive, results driven and with no need
for hidden add-ons.
