Cash pays for itself. Over 5 years, cash fees of £161k cover your £80k total cost — everything in VCIs™ (£375k at face value) is portfolio-linked upside on top.
Assumptions. Companies onboard at the start of each year and transact evenly. The fee applies to both the cash and VCI™ legs of every settlement; your VCI™ fee income accrues at issuance face value at the portfolio level. VCI™ realisation depends on portfolio performance and the Flowback Loop — the multiple slider models scenarios, not guarantees. Directional tool, not financial advice.
