Benefits of Investing With Us

The Goodbody EIIS Funds offer Investors the opportunity to invest in a diversified portfolio of Irish companies under the Employment and Investment Incentive Scheme (“EIIS”). By investing in our Funds, the Investors should be able to avail of tax relief of up to 20-50% of their investment amount and have the potential for an additional capital return. The rate of tax relief available depends on the stage at which a company is at when it receives investment.

  • Return on investment is a combination of tax relief and an increase in share value.
  • The EII Scheme is one of the few remaining income tax reliefs.
  • An EIIS investment can be offset against rental income (A pension contribution cannot).
  • The relief works very well with taxable lump sum receipts.

  • Launching at the end of year in late November/early December.

The Opportunity

In the Irish market, there is an ongoing lack of capital available for growing SMEs. We believe there is significant opportunity to provide funding to quality Irish companies. Our portfolio will attest to that.
