EQ Investors, a UK-based wealth manager led by Bestinvest founder John Spiers, has launched a new investment service for investors seeking to benefit from the multiple tax reliefs offered by Venture Capital Trusts (VCTs).
The service, which has been designed to address the growing demand for quality tax-efficient products, will offer analytical research of EQ’s ‘top picks’, including provider and product reviews.

The he EQ service also provides a comprehensive listing of all offers on the EQ website, a detailed review by the EQ research team on each individual VCT share offer, which includes both qualitative and quantitative analysis, discounts on the standard charges as well as downloadable application forms.
Meantime, EQ has introduced a guide providing details on how VCTs work, the benefits, risks involved and how to invest.
EQ CEO John Spiers said: "We are excited by this launch as we continue to expand our range of services. We expect demand for VCTs to outstrip supply for the foreseeable future as the number of opportunities for tax efficient investing by higher rate taxpayers reduces.
"We offer the most detailed research in the marketplace and in most cases we can discount the standard charges, saving investors’ money and enhancing future returns."
