The Income & Growth VCT
Welcome to the webpage of The Income and Growth VCT. The Company was launched in the 2000/2001 tax year and raised £17.4 million, net of issue costs. In the 2007/2008 tax year, the Company changed its name and launched a new S Share Offer that raised £11.6 million, net of issue costs.
On 1 April 2008 Matrix Private Equity Partners (MPEP) took over the sole mandate for managing the VCT's investments. The move reflects the VCT's increased focus on Management Buy Outs and its move away from technology investments.

Investment Objective
To provide Investors with a regular income stream, by way of tax free dividends, and to generate capital growth through portfolio realisations, which can be distributed by way of additional tax free dividends. This should be achieved by making investments structured not only to generate income but also to provide the potential for capital gains from trade sales and flotations. It is intended that the Fund will pay twice yearly dividends.
