Secure, regulated tax incentives
for early stage investors
Discover investments in innovation to help you plan, build and manage your wealth
From 1 July 2016, the Australian government is making it more attractive for investors to invest in early stage investment companies.
The tax benefits include a 20 per cent tax offset on new equity investments, capped at $200,000 per sophisticated investor, per year, and a 10-year capital gains tax exemption for profits realised on such investments held for at least 12 months.
Your investment decisions for early-stage investor companies will depend on a company being qualified as an ESIC® , which then makes you eligible for the new innovation tax incentives.
At ESIC ® Hub, we provide a tool for early-stage investor companies to assess themselves as being ESIC® ready. This tool is called the ESIC® Predictor. As an investor, we have developed a tool to help you estimate the potential tax savings if early-stage investment interests you. This tool is called the ESIC® Tax Saving Estimator.
We specialise in issuing investors with ESIC® qualifying tax-advice certificates, a vital step to securing your tax savings. The onus is on investors to validate their investment is ESIC® qualifying at the time of their investment. ESIC® Hub has the solutions, experience and depth of knowledge to help you secure your ESIC® tax saving entitlements.
