Investment Opportunities

Investments
Global Investment Opportunities offers two classes of investment, Share of Profit and Priority Return.

Share of Profit
Investors can participate in the commercial success of an individual development – or ‘basket’ of ventures if they want to spread their risk – by acquiring shares in a special purpose limited company, (SPV). The term of the projects is usually between three and five years.
The investment is treated as a capital return for taxation purposes and can be offset against the investor's CGT allowance, currently £10,100 (2009-10). Any gains in excess of the investor's annual allowance will be taxed at a rate of 18%.
 
Priority Return
This is the opportunity to invest on a lower-risk basis across the range of our international properties. The return is 7.5% (simple) per annum and is over three years.
The investment is treated as a capital return for taxation purposes and can be offset against the investor's CGT allowance, currently £10,100 (2009-10). Any gains in excess of the investor's annual allowance will be taxed at a rate of 18%.
For further information, please see our more detailed explanation of Priority Return.
 
Before deciding to invest, you should discuss the opportunity with your financial adviser. As with all investments, there are risks involved and it is essential you fully understand the risk/reward implications of participation. We believe only those investors who understand the risks associated with international investment should consider this scheme and then such investments should form part of a balanced portfolio.
