    I can't think of a good reason to exempt them, especially as many people already hold VCT shares via brokers to benefit from trail commission rebates. Some already allow for subscription via your broker. The income tax relief certificates would still be sent out.

    "Traded" shares initially and look at extending to "private" companies later. VCTs are usually/often listed ie. traded so, yes.
