and for even longer in the USA.Government in the UK has supportedbusiness angels both directly and indirectly in various ways,notably supporting business angel networksto enable entrepreneurs to more easily find investors and vice versa;tax incentives through theEnterprise Investment Scheme(EIS);and co-investment schemes.Trends in the supply of SME finance inthe UK clearly imply that business angels have become even more significant over the past decade.,Despite the importance of business angels as a source of finance for entrepreneurial businesses thereare no statistics which accurately measure the size of the business angel market,profile angelinvestments and monitor annual investment trends.This creates a huge void in small firm financingstatistics particularly when contrasted with the detailed information available on other forms of SMEfinance(e.g.bank lending,venture capital investments).,Since the mid-1990s these considerations have prompted various organisations,most notably the Bankof England,to call for more robust data on business angel investment activity.Government recognisedthis and in 2006 BERR commissioned a review of data sources and methodologies that could develop arobust time series on business angel investment activity in the UK.,This report is the direct outcome of that Developing Time Series Data report.It is intended to be the firstin an annual series of reports on the business angel market and has been commissioned by theDepartment for Business,Innovation and Skills(BIS)on behalf of a consortium comprising HM Treasury,HM Revenue and Customs(HMRC),British Business Angels Association(BBAA),British Venture CapitalAssociation(BVCA),LINC Scotland and Association of Chartered Certified Accountants(ACCA).Itcomprises two sections.The first section comprises an independent analysis and commentary onbusiness angel investment activity in 2008/09 in the visible market and an estimate of the overall scaleof angel investment activity.The second section comprises a study by HMRC of the demographiccharacteristics of investors claiming tax reliefs under the Enterprise Investment Scheme,Venture CapitalTrusts and Community Investment Tax Relief through Self-Assessment.,SECTION A:THE UK BUSINESS ANGEL MARKET IN 2008/09,2.ANGEL NETWORKS THE VISIBLE MARKET,Most business angels(and most of their investment activity)are invisible and so virtually impossible toidentify and track over time.Our ability to discern investment activity on a systematic comparativelongitudinal basis is therefore restricted to the visible market-angel networks and other portals(such asbusiness angel syndicates)through which angel investment is channelled.The analysis reported in thisChapter is based on responses from 20 of the 24 networks that are members of the British BusinessAngels Association.In 2008/09 a total of 233 businesses raised a total of 44.9m from investorsregistered with these networks.A total of 590 investors participated in these investments.The average(mean)investment was 192,634 and involved 2.5 investors.Investors associated with LINC Scotlandinvested 17.9m in 74 deals.Thus,in the UK as a whole 62.8m was invested by angel investorsregistered with BBAA members or with LINC Scotland in 2008/09.,vii,The current population of BBAA networks comprises a mix of long-established and more recentlyestablished organisations:42%of networks were established prior to 1999.They are typically fundedthrough a combination of fees and sponsorship,with most having a range of different revenue sources.The majority of networks derive income from entrepreneurs,angels and success fees.Networksundertake a wide range of activities to facilitate investment activity,notably company presentationevents at which entrepreneurs pitch for money.Most also produce newsletters or informationbulletins,run investment clubs or other types of meetings which enable angels to network with oneanother,and have a database of contacts.More than half run training and capacity events for investors,hold investor forums and fairs and support investor syndicates.,The 20 networks which provided information reported a total of more than 5,500 registered businessangels.Only 3%of network members were women.The distribution of registered angels was highlyskewed,with four networks all large,national,commercially oriented networks,each with over 500members-accounting for 67%of the total.The median network had 123 investors.Turnover of angelswas quite significant,with 1,700 angels(31%)joining during the year and 473(9%)leaving.,The networks received a total of 8,685 business plans during the year.Here again the distribution wasskewed,with four networks accounting for 66%of the total.The median was 220.A total of 824companies were presented to investors,equivalent to 1 in 10 of business plans received.There were233 companies which raised investment through these networks,comprising 28%of those companiespresented to investors but just 2.8%of all the business plans that they received.In the majority ofnetworks,the average amount raised from angels registered with the network(excluding investmentfrom co-investors)was under 200k,confirming that these networks continue to mobilise risk capital inthat part of the market most often thought to suffer from an equity gap problem.There is littlecorrelation between those networks attracting the most business plans and those doing the most deals.,3.ANGEL NETWORK INVESTMENT ACTIVITY,This Chapter is based on deal-specific information from 20 members of the BBAA covering a total of 225(out of 233)individual investments made by their registered investors in 2008/09.Aggregated data inthe same tabular formats was provided by LINC Scotland for 74 investments.,The markets in Scotland and the remainder of the UK are organised differently so the data are presentedseparately.The networks which provided information to BBAA operate on the basis of introducinginvestors to entrepreneurs seeking finance,for example through presentation events,newsletters,databases,etc,and then step back from the process to let investors find investment opportunities thatinterest them and then try to negotiate a deal with the entrepreneur.LINC Scotland is mainly supportingorganised angel groups rather than individual angels and so the investments that they report are almostexclusively made by angels investing as members of angel groups.,Particularly in the organised and visible part of the market,angels often invest alongside other investors,such as banks,venture capital funds and,increasingly,co-investment funds.Hence,it is important todifferentiate between the amounts invested by business angels registered with the networks and theoverall deal size.Overall deal sizes range from less than 25,000 to over 1m.Deals made through LINCScotland are larger.,viii,Angels who have invested through BBAA networks were the sole investors in 58%of these deals.In theremainder of the deals the share of total investment contributed by angels ranges from less than 10%toover 75%.The picture is very different in Scotland where only 8%of deals solely involved angels.In theremainder,angels accounted for between 25%and 75%of the total deal.,It follows from the extent of co-investing that the amounts invested by angels are smaller than overalldeal sizes.In deals made through BBAA networks,angels invested less than 200,000 in two-thirds ofcases,and invested less than 100,000 in half of all cases.At the other extreme,just 8%of businessesraised more than 500,000 from business angels.Here again there were contrasts with Scotland,wherethere were relatively fewer angel investments over 500k and slightly more in the 50k to 200k range.,However,this exaggerates the amount invested by individual angels in a single investment.This isbecause angels registered with the same network sometimes invest together in the same deal.Justunder two-thirds of the investments made through the networks involved more than one angel investor,and that one in five of all investments involved five or more angel investors.Information on theamounts invested by individual angels is not available.,Over half of the companies raising finance from BBAA network investors were doing so for the first time,with a further 23%having previously raised one round of finance from network investors.At the otherextreme,6%of companies had raised at least five previous rounds of fin
