== FAQ<ref>All questions have been answered by Albion where appropriate.</ref> == === What happens after I invest my money? === After your money is invested, Albion will begin deploying the capital into both new and existing portfolio companies, which you will see in your investor portal over time. While you hold your share interest in the Albion VCTs, you will gain exposure to all of each relevant Albion VCT's holdings. After holding your share interest for 5 years, you can either continue to hold for future growth and income, or request that Albion buys back your shares (which is at each VCT fund's discretion). === How often will I get updates on the fund's performance? === You can check the status of your investments and portfolio companies at any time through the Further investor portal. There, you will find summaries of all the startups you are invested in, as well as news stories relevant to those companies. Performance updates are provided live through the platform as the value of your portfolio changes. === What happens if I want to sell my holding in the fund before the end of the fund lifetime? === In order to benefit from the tax reliefs available to VCT investors, you must hold your shares in the Albion VCTs for five years from the date your investment is registered. Before the end of this five year period, your shares are illiquid and very difficult to sell, and you are liable to pay back any tax relief you receive from HMRC if you cease to hold your shares. Given this, it is important you only invest an amount you are able to keep in the fund for the entire duration of a fund's minimum holding period and up to 5 years after (as sale is not guaranteed at the end of the minimum holding period). === Who is the legal investor in the fund? Does Further use a nominee or are my investments in Antler held in my own name? === When you invest in Albion through Further, you invest directly in the fund in your own legal name. Further does not use a nominee company on your behalf, and you are the legal owner of your interest in the fund. Further is an execution-only broker regulated by the UK Financial Conduct Authority, and is not a fund or a fund manager. === On what basis are the portfolio valuations prepared? === Private equity and venture capital fund managers are required to undertake periodic valuations of their investments as part of their ongoing reporting to fund investors. The International Private Equity and Venture Capital Valuation (IPEV) Guidelines puts forward recommendations, intended to correspond to current best practice, on the valuation of private equity and venture capital investments. Almost all reputable fund managers follow these guidelines. For more information on these guidelines, see the IPEV website at www.privateequityvaluation.com.
