A Boutique Business & Corporate Finance Consultancy
Started by seasoned entrepreneurs and accountants, Vicarage Ventures helps its small to mid-market clients meet the challenges of growing a business in challenging times.
Our partner-led service is always tailored to the particular needs of our clients whether you plan on:
- selling your company,
- buying a business,
- a management buy-out, or
- raising finance to grow your business.
Initial discussions are free and most fees are linked to the successful completion of a transaction. We usually however look for a small retainer as a sign of commitment.
The Risks of Investing in Early Stage Companies. Be warned: investment in start-up and early stage companies will not yield results in the short-term. Any returns from such a shareholding will be dependent on the performance of the investee company; the value and any income from such an investment can just as easily fall as it can rise. Investors may not get back the amount originally invested and investee companies may not pay dividends. Past performance is not a guide to future performance. Shares in an unlisted company may be difficult to sell and it may be difficult to obtain reliable information about their value. Vicarage Ventures does not act for investors or provide advice as to the merits of investing in any company and therefore will not be responsible to investors for providing the protections afforded its clients. Investment in companies at an early stage of development is only suitable for investors capable of evaluating their risks and advantages and who have sufficient resources to bear any loss that might result from such an investment. Prospective investors should carefully consider whether such an investment suits them when their personal financial circumstances are taken into account. If you are in any doubt as to the suitability of such investments, you should seek independent financial advice.
