Raising Investment – Master Checklist and Document Index

About this document

What it’s for

The front sheet for the Raising Investment pack. It takes a company through an equity or convertible funding round in order – preparation and tax assurance, terms, company approvals, completion and investor reporting. Each step names the template to use and links straight to the file, and Part 5 maps the main legal requirements to the templates that help you meet them.

When to use it

  • When you plan a funding round
  • From first investor conversation to completion
  • After completion, for investor updates and SEIS/EIS compliance

What’s inside

The document is laid out in the sections below. Each one comes with a plain-English guidance note explaining what it does and what to change.

  • Part 1 – Prepare
  • Part 2 – Agree the deal
  • Part 3 – Complete
  • Part 4 – The annual review cycle
  • Part 5 – Legal and regulatory map
  • Part 6 – Full document index with a link to every file

How to complete it

  • Unzip the pack and keep all the files in one folder – the links open the other files from that folder
  • Work through the parts in order, then use the annual cycle each year
  • Tick and date each step, name the owner and keep the completed checklist with your records

Key points to check

  • The links only work when this file and the other templates are saved in the same folder – if you move or rename files, use the numbers in the document index
  • Promoting investments is regulated – check the financial promotion rules before approaching investors
  • Take legal and tax advice on any funding round
  • Laws change – check the current position before relying on the legal map

Our templates are professionally structured starting points for UK businesses, not legal advice. For anything complex, unusual or high-value, have your final version checked by a solicitor.
