Share Buyback Policy

for Puma VCTs

If you are an existing investor and have held your VCT shares for five years or more and are ready to sell, the Share Buyback Policy makes things easy.

A simple way to sell shares

If you have held your VCT shares for five years or more and are ready to sell, you can request to sell your shares back to the VCT at a discount of 5% to the latest published NAV.

There is no need to engage with a third-party broker, avoiding the cost normally associated with selling VCT shares, nor do you need to speak to multiple third parties – just us and your Financial Adviser. 

We will assist with the process of dematerialising the physical share certificates where applicable, converting them into a digital format, and placing the sale order.

More information

We aim to provide the opportunity to sell shares twice a year, usually towards the end of January and July. Buybacks depend on regulations, market conditions, and the Company having sufficient funds and distributable cash reserves, and remain at the discretion of the Board.
