Important information
Please be aware that VCTs are long-term, highly illiquid investments. VCTs usually invest in small, unquoted companies and carry a greater risk than many other forms of investment. In addition, the level of charges is often greater than unit trusts and OEICs. Past performance is not necessarily a guide to the future. The value of investments, and the income from them, can fall as well as rise and you may not get back the amount invested. Chelsea Financial Services offers an execution-only service. If you require investment advice you should contact an expert adviser. Tax relief is restricted to total VCT investments for each investor to £200,000 per tax year. Tax is subject to statutory change and the value of tax relief (if any) will depend upon individual circumstances. The Pembroke VCT is not the only VCT offers available, and this mailing is not a recommendation.
