Remember the risks when investing in VCTsVenture Capital Trusts (VCTs) offer some good benefits such as a 30% tax rebate, nil tax to pay on dividends and if the shares are subsequently sold at a profit, the gain does not give rise to a Capital Gains Tax (CGT) liability. All very tempting, meaning they can have a valuable place in a portfolio, but remember that VCTs are a higher risk investment and so it is important to look beyond the tax benefits. |
