Currently viewing the definition of: Venture Capital Trust


	A venture capital trust is similar to an investment trust in that it invests the money it receives in other businesses. In this instance, the businesses it invests in are new or unquoted companies that are looking for development capital. As such venture capital trusts are relatively high-risk investments. For investors willing to take on this risk there are income and capital gains tax benefits.
