SyndicateRoom, a platform that began life as a single issuer investment platform, has shared insight into its Access EIS Fund performance.
The Access EIS Fund is available to smaller investors and aims to generate a return of £3.50 for each £1 invested. The diversified fund mirrors “super angels,” professional investors with a proven track record of performance. EIS [Enteprise Investment Scheme] means investments are made in companies that qualify for the significant tax exemption – mitigating risk and boosting returns for investors.
The fund benefits from data harvested from 10,000 startup investors and then co-invests, allowing individual investors to participate in the portfolio on their platform.
This week, SyndicateRoom distributed an email that reports “very encouraging growth,” with estimated growth by vintage of 44% for 2020, 37% for 2021, and 8% for 2022. The company explains that, on average, “a super angel’s startup portfolio grows at 42% a year.” The company has tracked the performance of all the UK startups since 2011. They want to match that performance or beat that performance.
For smaller investors, venture investing is not for the impatient. You must be risk-tolerant and willing to accept that many early-stage firms fail. At the same time, SyndicateRoom notes that Super Angels expect to have at least one company that experiences 5X growth.
Of course, SyndicateRoom charges a fee for their services but the company reports the cost is lower than other “typical” EIS funds.
