SEIS provides tax incentives to investors taking up new equity investment in trading companies that have been trading for two years or less.

There are very detailed rules around SEIS and many ways in which HMRC can deny relief. If you think SEIS may be suitable for you or your company, please contact us to discuss this scheme further.
