This edition leads with the highlights from recent research on investment and performance across the UK, with a spotlight on Scotland, and the returns generated by private capital funds for investors.
Investing nationwide – spotlight on Scotland
Our most recent Nations & Regions publication, using data gathered from our members, found that £895m was invested into Scotland in 2021, or 5% of the total amount that year. This funding supported 88 businesses and 133,000 jobs. The report also highlights some of the exciting and innovative Scottish companies backed by BVCA members, in sectors like tech, pharmaceuticals and life sciences.
Industry performance
We’re also pleased to be able to highlight two pieces of BVCA research which dive into the returns generated by UK private equity and venture capital – for investors including university endowment funds and pension schemes.
