Directly Invested Portfolios

Alternative Investment Market

The AIM portfolio invests in around 30 innovative and growing smaller companies listed on the Alternative Investment Market (AIM). The portfolio is designed to achieve capital growth over the longer term.

Our AIM service has many key benefits, such as:

  • Business Property Relief – This will be validated by an external 3rd party
  • Competitive Fee Structure With no initial set up or exit fees
  • Inheritance Tax (IHT) Benefit – The opportunity to pass on more of your wealth, whilst retaining access to your capital (should you ever need it).

We spend considerable time constructing the AIM portfolio to gain exposure to a diverse range of  sectors. Our analysts identify growing AIM listed businesses with strong balance sheets and the cash flow to support long term growth in shareholder value.

We only use the specific information you (and where applicable, other portfolio advisers) have provided to ensure the best recommendations for you, our client – this is gathered in our Client Profile Form at the on-boarding stage. Our Investment team will conduct an in-depth review of your current risk, objectives, time horizon and financial situation to ensure that the AIM portfolio would be the best option to suit your individual needs.

If you would like to hear more, please get in touch with privateclients@aubreycm.co.uk or call our offices on +44 (0) 131 226 2083

Warning – The value of your investments and its income may go down as well as up, and you may not get back the original amount you invested

The minimum overall investment per client to access the Aubrey directly invested portfolios is £250,000,
