Why Commission-Free Matters for SEIS & EIS Investors
Understanding the SEIS & EIS Landscape
The UK’s Seed Enterprise Investment Scheme (SEIS) and Enterprise Investment Scheme (EIS) offer tempting tax reliefs. They reward risk-takers with income-tax and capital-gains relief, provided the paperwork is spot on. But without robust shareholder management, you risk missing deadlines, misfiling forms and losing vital tax benefits.
The Challenges of Traditional Shareholder Services
Many platforms charge a cut of every transaction or hide fees in the small print. This can eat into your returns or dilute the funds available to your business. Traditional providers often require:
- Manual data entry each time a share is issued
- Per-transaction fees that add up quickly
- Siloed tools for cap-table updates and proxy voting
These pain points slow you down. They throw up hurdles for advisers who must guide clients through complex HMRC compliance. It is not just an admin burden, it impacts investor confidence and can stall deals.
