Launch a SEIS & EIS venture capital fund

Launch a SEIS & EIS venture capital fund

The Enterprise Investment Scheme ("EIS") is a tax-efficient investment introduced by the UK Government in 1994 to incentivise investment into smaller UK companies. The government introduced the Seed Enterprise Investment Scheme ("SEIS") in 2013 following the success of EIS.

 

(S)EIS funds are usually smaller than traditional venture capital funds but are often less expansive and easier to set up due to a lighter structure. An (S)EIS fund is not considered to be a collective investment scheme as defined in section 235 of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 but an Alternative Investment Fund ("AIF") conducted on a discretionary basis by a common discretionary investment manager.

 

Sapphire is one of the leading S(EIS) investment managers in the UK, with more than 40 SEIS & EIS funds under management. We manage some of the UK's leading early-stage funds and have contributed to their success for the past ten years.

Launch a Private Equity Fund.

Launch a private equity fund

Private equity fund can including earlier stage investment namely venture capital fund (VC) or later stage follow-on investment on established company formerly private equity fund (PE). The most common fund structure is "LP/GP". LPs are the limited partners (investors) and the GPs is the investments managers and manage the fund. 

 

Limited Partnership funds de not offer tax incentive but usually allow for bigger investment into companies and larger fund size compared to (S)EIS. This fund structure is more costly to set-up and generally more complex. In that regards, LP/GP VC & PE funds constituted by the limited partnership are AIFs as defined under the United Kingdom’s Alternative Investment Fund Managers Regulations 2013.

 

Sapphire is currently managing numerous limited partnership private equity funds, and are rapidly expanding our presence in the UK market as a professional and trustworthy investment manager.

Launch a Property Fund

Launch a property fund

Property funds collect funds from various private or institutional investors in order to acquire one or more properties or investment products. They are classified as an unlisted form of indirect property investment. In terms of classification Property Fund's are slightly different than Private Equity Fund as they can be an AIF and a collective investment scheme depending on their structure (LP/GP, EPUT, REIT) 

An indirect property investment means that the investor subscribes to shares in a company that, in turn, invests in properties. Through property funds, investors therefore have the opportunity to invest relatively small amounts in large-volume properties by way of professional fund companies. Compared to a direct property investment, property funds are usually characterised by broad diversification (usually various properties in different regions and types of use) and professional investment management, which entails a higher degree of fungibility and lower transaction costs. 

 

Sapphire has considerable experience with property funds, and are aimng to expand our presence in the UK property market as a firm of outstanding reputation.

Apply for (Seed) Enterprise Investment Scheme Advanced Assurance

Apply for (seed) enterprise investment scheme advance assurance

SEIS and EIS offer attractive tax relief’s to UK investors who invest in high-risk early-stage companies that meet the qualifying conditions. Advance Assurance is essentially a pre-approval process performed by HMRC, that provides an opinion on whether a Company meets  the qualifying conditions of the schemes.


• Advance Assurance is not mandatory, however most UK investors will request that advance assurance is obtained before making an investment.


• Advance Assurance demonstrates to investors that if they invest in the Company, they will potentially qualify for the schemes tax reliefs.

 

Sapphire is one of the market leading SEIS/EIS consultants and have assisted countless entrepreneurs in obtaining (S)EIS approval from the HRMC.

“VoiceSage worked with Johnathan Graham to gain EIS approval from HMRC in the UK. Johnathan was a real gentleman, always positive, committed and determined. He was a first class professional and had a determination made of steel yet the style of a diplomat. It was a pleasure to work with him and he delivered everything that he promised in spite of HMRC putting several obstacles that would have knocked out a man of lesser commitment. He got the job done for us and I gained a trusted friend.“

James Kett, VoiceSage

“Very professional service, we have worked with Sapphire for over 3 years and they have taken care of all our FCA regulated activities, really given us piece of mind that everything is being looked after properly, very safe hands “

Damon Bonser, British Design Fund

I engaged with Bronagh in Sapphire in order to complete our EIS pre authorisation, having been delayed with another provider. Bronagh was great to work with, very professional and always available for advice when needed. We successfully received pre authorization and got it done in an efficient timeline, quicker than expected. I'd strongly recommend them to people looking at EIS.

Pat O'Connor, VRAI International Ltd

“Couldn't recommend Boyd and Sapphire Capital Partners more. We looked at using a number of vendors to help with our EIS/FCA activities but choose Sapphire as they were the most professional, well informed and supportive of the providers we met. They are always available to speak to and are entirely flexible and accommodating to all our needs. Highly recommend“

Ben Ashworth, The SidebySide Partnership

Sapphire was incredibly helpful and professional in helping us get the necessary approvals from HMRC. This was the second time we have used them as part of advanced assurance (SEIS & EIS). The responsiveness, support and flexibility offered to help us get things submitted were fantastic. Would highly recommend their service to anyone seeking advice and support with their EIS/SEIS.
