Financial Control
tal is an investment in a company on a much larger scale. The venture capitalist often provides most if not all of the initial capital and often becomes more closely involved in the management of the business.
Unlike other share dealing discussed in this website, there is no need for the company to be a public company.
Venture capital should be seen as a halfway house between investment and running your own business. Such arrangements are usually made as a result of a financial news site advertisement or by using an accountant (often from one of the larger firms) as an intermediary. Venture capital deals are often made under the aegis of the Business Expansion Scheme which allows generous tax concessions.
Venture capitalism has spawned its own colourful vocabulary which the investment group calls 'venturespeak'. Some of the more relevant terms are given in the glossary.
Venture capital should be seen as a high-risk long-term venture, usually requiring much larger sums than for normal portfolio
