Maximise Returns with SEIS & EIS
Of course, the end game with private company investment is capital growth. The Consortium Investment Network seeks companies that are out of development, close to product launch or in profit. The aim is to achieve an ideal risk/reward profile for each investment opportunity that we introduce.
The British businesses we represent are backed by the UK Government through the Seed and Enterprise Investment Schemes (SEIS/EIS).
Income Tax Relief
Up to 50% of the investment amount can be claimed back under SEIS and 30% under EIS.
CGT Exemption
Gains are tax-free if shares are held for at least three years.
CGT Deferral
Defer paying CGT on other gains by reinvesting into SEIS/EIS shares.
IHT Relief
Providing 100% IHT exemption for qualifying shares held for at least two years, under Business Property Relief (BPR).
Loss Relief
Losses can be offset against income or capital gains, reducing your overall tax liability.

What Our Members Say
Hear from sophisticated investors who have partnered with our network, alongside companies that have raised through our introductions.
"CIN have been an invaluable resource for us. They took on the idea, helped us secure early seed funding, and secured further funding under EIS to support our growth as we continue to scale in the States. They have supported us throughout our journey and have invested personally in our business, helping The Protein Ball Co. in its pursuit to become a global brand!"
"Duncan at the Consortium Investment Network introduced me to a small number of private companies that were seeking investment under the Enterprise Investment Scheme. They explained how EIS tax reliefs may be available, which helped me assess whether these higher-risk investments could be appropriate alongside independent advice."
"Having won on Dragon's Den, and received a rare full house of offers (five), we decided to raise through the CIN. We'd done our research, found their terms significantly more favourable, and we retained control. Their approach is faultless, and we raised what we needed as our company grew."
"I used CIN to access information about EIS-qualifying investment opportunities that I wouldn't have come across on my own. Understanding the potential income tax relief and capital gains deferral associated with EIS helped me evaluate the risks and benefits more clearly."
"We were successful on Dragon's Den and received an offer from Deborah Meaden. After reviewing the deal in the 3-month cool-off period, we decided to look elsewhere for the required funding. After many discussions with different groups, we decided that CIN was the best fit for our project. They really do care; you can sense that. They are now a significant shareholder in our business, and we hope to be able to show all of our shareholders a profit as we enter early discussions on acquisition."
"Following a business sale, I was exploring tax-efficient investment options and was introduced by the Consortium to companies raising funds under EIS. The explanations around potential CGT deferral and loss relief were helpful in framing the investment risk before I sought advice from my accountant. Tom was a reliable port of call throughout."
"We've worked with CIN now for several years. They have raised a sizeable sum for us, moving us from an R&D project to a fully functional Asset Management Platform that is attracting interest from well-known global firms. Their network is excellent, comprising knowledgeable individuals who are eager to invest in high-growth opportunities with favourable tax conditions."
"The Consortium provided introductions to early-stage companies that were seeking EIS investment and outlined how the scheme works in practice. While I understood the risks involved, the availability of EIS tax reliefs was a key factor in my decision to proceed."
"The service focused on making introductions to EIS-eligible companies rather than recommending investments. Having clarity on how income tax relief and potential inheritance tax benefits may apply under EIS supported my wider financial planning discussions with my adviser."
