Davy EIIS Fund

BES Management DAC, in partnership with Davy and BDO, manages the Employment and Investment Incentive Scheme (EIIS) fund, a leading source of capital for Irish SMEs. The fund has a long track record, with over €200 million raised and invested in ambitious Irish businesses over the last 25 years. The EIIS provides individual investors with up to 40% tax relief for investments in qualifying companies, making it a valuable option for both tax savings and supporting local businesses. The fund is sector-agnostic, investing across various industries in all 26 counties of Ireland. Recent portfolio companies include Nutritics, Horizon Offsite, Gym+Coffee, and Connexicon Medical, illustrating its broad focus on tech, health, and consumer services. With an average investment in 6-10 companies per year, BES aligns closely with management teams to help accelerate growth, offering both financial capital and strategic support. For investors, the EIIS is particularly appealing due to the structured diversification across companies, minimizing risk while aiming for solid returns. The fund requires a minimum holding period of four years, making it a medium-term investment with potential for high rewards. Led by seasoned professionals like Ivan Murphy and Sinéad Heaney, BES Management ensures rigorous governance and a hands-on approach to nurturing the growth of Irish enterprises.
