Business Investment Account

Does anyone have experience opening a Business investment account? There do not seem to be many providers, and they often cater to larger businesses.

    I have done a couple.   Its not frequent but typically use the offshore bond wrapper as that gives more control over taxation (depending on your accounting method).   Although you wont have access to the offshore bond wrapper and will have to stick with direct holdings in a general investment account.

    Size of business is not an issue although you have to be careful that the investments you make don't turn your company into an investment company.
