Key risks to keep in mind:

• Capital at risk: This is a high-risk investment. The value of an investment, and any income from it, can fall as well as rise. Investors could end up getting back less than they put in
• Tax treatment: Tax treatment depends on individual circumstances and tax rules could change in the future
• Volatility and liquidity: VCT shares could fall or rise in value more than other shares listed on the main market of the London Stock Exchange. They may also be harder to sell
• VCT qualification status: Tax reliefs depend on the VCT maintaining its qualifying status
