Notes to Editors

Braveheart Investment Group plc

Braveheart provides financing and associated advisory services for small and medium sized enterprises (SMEs) as follows: 

For the company looking to raise money, we provide:

·; Equity capital. This form of financing is typically long term and is usually appropriate for fast growing businesses or early stage companies. We will consider equity financings where our individual investment, or the investment we arrange, would normally be a maximum of £2m although we are happy to participate in larger financings as part of a syndicate;

·; Debt finance. Short to medium term and for companies with cash flow to service the loan. Our unit size for this type of finance is up £1m and we will usually provide junior debt which is unsecured but linked to an equity instrument; and

·; Corporate finance advice on all aspects of raising money, strategic development and corporate governance.

The money we invest comes from a variety of sources (see below) and is sometimes linked to particular geographical locations.

To the investor, we provide a one stop shop service to those in one of the following groups who are looking for exposure to SME investments:

·; High net worth (HNW) individuals looking to build tax efficient Enterprise Investment Scheme (EIS) and Seed EIS portfolios;

·; Family offices and private sector institutions; and

·; The Public sector.

Investors can choose between investment types ranging from self-build portfolios, to a full fund management service.
