Funds under management
Iona Environmental VCT Plc
The fund was launched by the Company in 2009 to invest in Anaerobic Digestion (AD) or In-vessel composting (IVC) plant operations, or companies demonstrating similar investment characteristics. In July 2011 the Company has launched a further fund by the issue of a new class of share, the B shares, and broadening its investing policy to allow to invest in the environmental infrastructure projects, focussing on organic waste recycling in the UK. The IEVCT fund offered a unique opportunity for the investors to contribute to development of renewable energy generation projects.
