Clubfinance VCT Home PageList of currently available VCTsVCT Funds Raised dataVCT Portfolio Services available for investment

VCT investments are higher risk investments. Please see our main VCT page for further important information. REMEMBER, ONLY PURCHASE A VCT INVESTMENT THROUGH AN EXECUTION-ONLY BROKER LIKE CLUBFINANCE IF YOU DO NOT NEED ADVICE. CLUBFINANCE WILL NOT ASSESS THE SUITABILITY OR APPROPRIATENESS OF ANY INVESTMENT. For advice on suitability or an assessment of appropriateness, please contact an authorised and regulated financial adviser.
If you know which VCT you would like to invest in and it is open for the 2011/12 tax year, please use the documentation in the table below. If the VCT is not listed or if you have difficulties, please contact us using the form at the bottom of this webpage and we will send you the appropriate documentation. A commission rebate of 100% of Clubfinance's initial commission (as additional shares) plus 75% of renewal commission will apply.
Please see How to Invest - the process for details of the necessary steps and information you need to make an investment.
IMPORTANT NOTE ON CHARGES - Charges for VCTs can be very high and come in many different types and forms. Please ensure you read the Prospectus/Securities Note in detail to understand the charges.
Please remember to send your completed application form(s) together with a signed Client Declaration and Identification Documents to Clubfinance Ltd. click here for details.
 
DISCOUNTS: If you find a better initial discount elsewhere, please contact us and we will we see if we can match it. Please remember, we always give back all our initial commission on VCTs.
TOP-UPS: The share price you pay for a top-up issue is usually based on the Net Asset Value (NAV) of the same shares already in issue. When choosing a VCT top-up, please be aware that the shares already in issue can trade at a discount to NAV. This discount on the secondary market can in some cases be more than the income tax relief you might receive by investing through the top-up offer. Please see the London Stock Exchange for the latest VCT share prices.

* Expected closing dates are for the 2011/12 tax year. Note that complete applications must reach Clubfinance at least 3 working days prior to the closing date, and offers can close early.

**- please generate a commission statement and see the Securities Note/Prospectus/offer document for further information. All initial discounts shown are given as additional shares, except where specifically noted. The discounts shown include early bird additional shares offered by the VCT.

a- Please note that for these VCTs, this maximum may not be reached due to the limited life nature of the VCT.

b- Renewal commission for Edge Performance VCT 'H' shares is 0.375% for the first 4 years which will result in Clubfinance's renewal commission rebate being 0.28% over this period.

1- For these VCTs there is no renewal commission. As Clubfinance rebates 100% of its initial commission, Clubfinance therefore receives nothing for arranging these particular VCTs. This is in line with our 100% initial commission rebates for VCTs generally. We do this to provide clear, consistent, and competitive discounts that are transparent in terms of the commission we give up and keep. We do not charge a fee for this service.

2- For the ViCTory VCT top-up offer, the initial discount (representing Clubfinance’s rebated initial commission) is 2.75%, or 3% for existing ViCTory VCT shareholders.

3- Available to existing Amati VCT 2 shareholders only.

4- For the Amati VCT 2 Enhanced Share Buy Back the initial discount of 3% represents 3% additional shares provided under the terms of the Buy Back (see page 13 of the Prospectus).

5- The initial discount for Downing Income VCT 3 comprises Clubfinance’s rebated initial commission of 2.25%, and 1.5% additional shares provided under the terms of the offer for early applications received and accepted by 29 February 2012.

The cost of these additional “early-bird” shares will be met by Downing LLP (e.g. from the issue costs of the offer), and will not, therefore, be an additional charge to the VCT.

6- For Downing Planned Exit VCT 2&3 existing shareholders (including spouses) in Downing-managed VCTs will receive 1% additional shares (i.e. in total they will receive the higher initial discount shown above) for applications received and accepted by 17 February 2012. Please ensure applications are received by Clubfinance by 16 February 2012 to ensure this additional share allocation is obtained (please contact us if you have difficulty meeting this deadline). The cost of these additional “early-bird” shares will be met by Downing LLP (e.g. from the issue costs of the offer), and will not, therefore, be an additional charge to the VCT.

7- For Downing Structured Opportunities VCT 1, existing shareholders (including spouses) in Downing-managed VCTs, will receive 1% additional shares (i.e. in total they will receive the higher initial discount shown above) for applications received and accepted by 17 February 2012.

Please ensure applications are received by Clubfinance by 28 February 2012 to ensure this additional share allocation is obtained (please contact us if you have difficulty meeting this deadline).These additional “early-bird” shares are not paid for out of the issue costs of the offer, and therefore this part of the initial discount is only relative to later investors who do not receive the additional early-bird shares.

Please ensure applications are received by Clubfinance by 28 February 2012 to ensure this additional share allocation is obtained (please contact us if you have difficulty meeting this deadline). The cost of these additional “early-bird” shares will be met by Foresight Group (e.g. from the issue costs of the offer), and will not, therefore, be an additional charge to the VCT.

10- For the Foresight 3 VCT Enhanced Buyback - Clubfinance will receive this 1% initial commission as cash. Clubfinance will rebate the initial commission we receive for this offer as part of our annual commission rebate process in December (see our Terms of Business for more information). Note that investors will still receive the 3% additional Incentive Shares that are available under the terms of the offer when purchasing Additional Shares only.

11- The initial discount for Matrix VCT linked top-up offer comprises Clubfinance’s rebated initial commission of 2.75%, and 1.25% additional shares provided under the terms of the offer for early applications received and accepted (up to a maximum of £ 4 million in aggregate) by 29 February 2012.

Please ensure applications are received by Clubfinance by 27 February 2012 to ensure this additional share allocation is obtained (please contact us if you have difficulty meeting this deadline).

The cost of these additional “early-bird” shares will be met out of the 5.5% issue costs.

13- The initial discount for Northern 2 VCT comprises Clubfinance's rebated initial commission of 2.25%, and 1% additional shares (or 2% for existing shareholders in NVM-managed VCTs) provided under the terms of the offer for early applications received and accepted by 6 February 2012.
