SEIS & EIS Advance Assurance
Planning to raise investment under the Seed Enterprise Investment Scheme (SEIS) or Enterprise Investment Scheme (EIS)? Advance assurance from HMRC confirms your company is likely to qualify, a key reassurance for investors before they commit. Morgan Reach prepares and submits advance assurance applications for growing UK businesses.
Why It Matters to Investors
SEIS and EIS offer investors significant income tax relief and capital gains benefits, but only if the company qualifies. Advance assurance reduces investor risk and is often the deciding factor in whether a round closes smoothly.
