12 December 2018

What is the Employment and Investment Incentive Scheme? 

The Employment and Investment Incentive Scheme (“EII Scheme”) is a tax relief incentive scheme, (previously the Business Expansion Scheme (“BES”)) which provides all-income tax relief to Qualifying Investors for Investments in certain qualifying small and medium sized trading companies (“SMEs”)*

The EII Scheme offers one of the few remaining income tax reliefs and is one of the few sources of total income tax relief (which includes, for example, rental income).
