Our role
EIS Finder presents information and supports enquiries. The website does not take investment payments or determine personal suitability.
Your decision
Review current documents, ask questions and seek independent advice. Tax advantages should be considered alongside the possibility of losing your entire investment.
THE THINKING BEHIND THE DECISION
More understanding.
Better questions.
A clear research process helps you see what a headline cannot tell you.
Read beyond the headline
Look at cash requirements, operating assumptions, share rights, fees and the possibility of further funding.
Understand the downside
Consider what happens if the business misses its plans, needs more capital or cannot find an exit.
Take independent advice
Separate your interest in the company from questions about your own finances, eligibility and ability to absorb loss.
THE EIS FINDER LIBRARY
