3. Purpose of This Website
This website is provided for general information about Oakridge Capital Partners, our business activities and the UK private markets.
Information published on this website is intended to help visitors understand our approach, the nature of private market investments and the risks associated with investing in unlisted companies.
Nothing on this website should be interpreted as a guarantee of investment performance, financial returns or the success of any particular business.
The availability of information on this website does not mean that any investment opportunity is available or suitable for a particular individual.
4. Financial Promotions and Investor Eligibility
Certain information and investment opportunities communicated by Oakridge may constitute financial promotions under the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000.
Where applicable, such communications are intended only for persons to whom they may lawfully be made, including individuals who satisfy relevant exemptions under the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (Financial Promotion) Order 2005.
These may include:
- High Net Worth Individuals under Article 48.
- Self-Certified Sophisticated Investors under Article 50A.
- Other persons to whom the relevant communication may lawfully be made.
Access to restricted investment information may require completion of an appropriate investor classification or self-certification statement.
Oakridge reserves the right to restrict access to investment-related materials where an individual does not satisfy the relevant eligibility requirements.
Investor classification does not constitute confirmation that any investment is suitable for an individual.
5. Investment Risk
Investments in privately held, unlisted companies involve substantial financial risk and may not be suitable for all investors.
The value of investments can fall as well as rise, and investors may lose some or all of the capital invested.
Unlisted investments are generally illiquid, meaning there may be no readily available market through which shares can be sold.
Investors should be prepared to hold investments for extended periods, potentially without any opportunity to realise their value.
Early-stage and growing companies may face significant commercial, financial and operational challenges, including the possibility of business failure.
Before considering any investment, visitors should carefully review the relevant investment documentation and the Risk Warning published on this website.
6. No Investment, Legal or Tax Advice
Information provided on this website is for general informational purposes and does not constitute personal investment, financial, legal or tax advice.
Nothing contained on this website should be regarded as a personal recommendation to buy, sell or hold any investment.
Oakridge does not represent that any investment opportunity described is suitable for a particular individual.
Visitors should independently assess their financial circumstances, investment objectives, experience and capacity to bear financial loss.
Anyone uncertain about an investment should seek advice from an appropriately authorised financial adviser or other suitably qualified professional.
7. EIS and SEIS Tax Relief
Certain investment opportunities may qualify for tax relief under the Enterprise Investment Scheme (EIS) or Seed Enterprise Investment Scheme (SEIS).
Any reference to eligibility, anticipated tax relief or tax advantages is subject to the relevant company and investor satisfying the applicable statutory requirements.
Tax treatment depends upon individual circumstances, may change and is not guaranteed.
Tax relief may be withdrawn or reduced where qualifying conditions are not satisfied or cease to apply.
Investors should obtain independent tax advice where appropriate and should not make investment decisions solely on the basis of potential tax advantages.
8. Accuracy of Information
Oakridge takes reasonable care when preparing and presenting information on this website.
However, information may become outdated, incomplete or inaccurate due to changes in market conditions, legislation, business circumstances or other factors.
We do not guarantee that all information will remain current or that the website will be free from errors.
Information may be amended, updated or removed where appropriate.
Visitors should not rely solely upon website information when making financial or investment decisions.

Where investment opportunities are made available to eligible investors, the relevant terms, conditions, risks and supporting documentation will be provided separately.
Any investment will be subject to the applicable legal requirements, eligibility criteria, documentation and acceptance procedures.
No investment agreement or contractual commitment arises merely through accessing this website, submitting an enquiry or receiving general information from Oakridge.
