Tax year-end 2022/23: Haatch EIS Fund


Less than 3 weeks to go until the Haatch EIS Fund closes for the tax year-end tranche!
As you think about your own, as well as your clients, needs when it comes to tax-efficient investments we are offering you the final opportunity to be fully invested this tax year. This means that you can potentially benefit from carryback to the 2021/22 tax year depending on individual circumstances.
Aside from the fantastic growth-focused companies lined up for the portfolio, there are generous tax reliefs offered through the EIS:
- Income Tax Relief - you can claim 30% income tax relief if you’re based in the UK and are paying income tax relief. You can either claim in the 2022/23 tax year or carry back to 2021/22 depending on your circumstances
- CGT relief - gains made by the investment are exempt from CGT provided the shares have been held for a minimum of three years. You can also benefit from CGT deferral relief
- Loss relief - where shares are disposed of at a loss, you can claim loss relief, less any income tax relief, against your income tax bill
- IHT relief - where shares have been held for two or more years and at the date of death the investment can be passed on without incurring any IHT
To see the full details on the reliefs available please see the government website here.
The Haatch EIS Fund closes at the latest on 30 March for targeted full deployment by tax year-end. We require completed application forms, AML checks and cleared monies by this date. As a reminder:
- Target portfolio of 4-6 companies - focused on companies with the ability to transform established markets through digital innovation
- Target return of 10x across the portfolio
- Expected investment holding period of 5-7 years
- Minimum investment £10,000

Capital is at risk. Past performance is not a predictor of future performance. Tax reliefs depend on the individual investor's personal circumstances.

‘Capital Growth’ Has Many Meanings. So does ‘Performance’!
Why do we invest? The glib answer is ‘to make money’. For most investors however, I suspect the reasons are much more nuanced.
When I first committed funds to a Haatch portfolio company, the reasons for doing so were multiple. Of course, I was looking forward to value amplification and the tax basis was also highly attractive. However, I also had a strong sense of wanting to ‘plug in’ to a modern, cutting-edge area of technology.
Headcount Is Dead as a Growth Metric. Here's What Our Portfolio Data Says Replaced It.
For two decades, venture capital used a crude proxy for progress: how many people have you hired? Team size signalled ambition, traction, momentum. If a seed-stage company doubled headcount, it was "scaling."Our portfolio data now tells us that era is over.Across roughly 200 early-stage B2B software companies we track, median revenue growth over the past two years ran at around 50% annualized. Median headcount growth over the same period? Zero.
