The smart way to invest in early-stage private equity

Why invest through Seedrs?

Market leading deal flow

Seedrs is the most active funder of UK private companies and accounted for 11% of all private equity deal activity in 2016*.  


On Seedrs, self-directed investors can access a broad range of deals and further diversify across sector, stage, geography and equity type. 


Portfolio performance

Seedrs is one of a few platforms to publish a portfolio update analysing the characteristics and performance of its funded companies.

Secondary market liquidity

Seedrs is the first platform in the UK to launch a secondary market . This enables investors to buy and sell shares from each other, giving them the opportunity to potentially realise early returns.


Note: It may be difficult to find a buyer or seller, and investors should not assume an early exit will be available just because a secondary market exists.

Understanding the appeal of early-stage equity

Capital growth

We believe that investing in early-stage and growth businesses has the potential to produce returns that significantly outperform those from other asset classes, such as: large cap equities, income instruments and property.


This is a high-risk asset: most early-stage companies fail, returns tend to come from a small number of highly successful businesses after a significant amount of time.

Diversification

Investment in early-stage and growth businesses can provide diversification benefits across an overall asset allocation.

Support innovation

Investing in early-stage private equity offers investors the opportunity to support innovation and feel a deeper connection to the companies they invest in.

Investing involves risks, including loss of capital, illiquidity, lack of dividends and dilution, and should be done only as part of a diversified portfolio. Please read the Risk Warnings before investing. Investments should only be made by investors who understand these risks. Tax treatment depends on individual circumstances and is subject to change in future.

With regard to the Seedrs Secondary Market, not all shares will be eligible for the Secondary Market and, even if they are, the ability to buy and sell shares will depend on demand. It can be difficult to find a buyer or seller, and investors should not assume that an early exit will be available just because a secondary market exists.
