Risk Warning: Investments in the Oxford Innovation EIS Growth Fund (the Fund) place your capital at risk. The Fund Manager, Oxford Investment Opportunity Network Limited (trading as Oxford Innovation Finance), does not provide investment, tax or legal advice and recommends that you seek professional advice if you are considering investing in the Fund. You may lose part or all of the amount you invest in the Fund. The Fund invests in unquoted shares in small companies. The value of these shares can be volatile, and the shares are often difficult to sell. The tax reliefs associated with the investments depend on the individual circumstances of each investor and may be subject to change. Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future results. The Fund Manager’s forecasts and performance targets cannot accurately predict how investments will perform. Your attention is drawn to the section of the Fund’s Information Memorandum headed “Risks”, which should be reviewed in full.
