Historical experience

ANUVA Investments - How it all began...

ANUVA Investments Limited (AIL) is a Section 12J venture capital company (or VCC), raising approximately R2.3 billion from more than 850 private investors.

Section 12J was a government tax incentive that allowed investors to deduct qualifying investments in approved venture capital companies from their taxable income. The incentive ended on 30 June 2021, closing the regime to new tax-deductible investments.

Today, ANUVA continues to hold and actively manage the underlying portfolio on behalf of our shareholders, with a focus on protecting and realising long-term value.
