VCTs
Our core business focus is on managing Venture Capital Trusts (VCT's).We manage six VCTs, with over 9,000 investors. VCTs are a key strand of our business – as we aim to continue providing a high level of tax-free yield to investors seeking exposure to alternative tax-efficient assets.
Capital For Enterprise
Maven was appointed in April 2009 to manage the £30m Capital for Enterprise Fund A, as part of the Real Help for Business programme introduced by the Government to help bridge the current funding gap that many UK small to medium enterprises are experiencing as a result of the credit crisis.
Co-investment
At a time when alternative investments play an increasingly important part in a broad-based portfolio, investors or their pension funds can access our private company deals directly. Access to such a wide range of well researched deals is generally not available from a leading private equity house in the UK.
