The only modern browser-based investment club platform built specifically for UK clubs.

Running a UK investment club is harder than it should be

HMRC's rules for investment clubs are genuinely complex. Most software either ignores UK tax law entirely or ships a Windows desktop app from 2005. HWSW was built from the ground up to handle it properly.

Calculating each member's gain share is a spreadsheet nightmare

HWSW calculates every member's Capital Gains automatically on every transaction — using HMRC Section 104 pooling rules with same-day and 30-day matching.

New members joining mid-year cause chaos with historic gains

Capital Equalisation Adjustments are calculated automatically on the day a new member joins, so they never benefit from — or get penalised by — gains they didn't earn.

Preparing each member's tax figures takes all weekend

Every member gets their own tax year summary with HMRC-ready CGT figures, income allocations, and Form 185-ready data — generated in seconds.

No way to see the whole portfolio at a glance

Live portfolio dashboard with individual holdings, NAV per unit, member ownership percentages, and unrealised gain/loss — updated in real time.

How HWSW compares to iValuation

iValuation has been the default UK club software for years. But it's a Windows desktop app that hasn't kept up with how clubs work today.

How HMRC Section 104 works for investment clubs

HMRC requires investment clubs to use Section 104 pooling to calculate the cost basis of shares they sell. Under this method, all purchases of a particular share are pooled together, and gains are calculated using a weighted average cost across the entire pool.

Before consulting the Section 104 pool, HMRC applies two matching rules in order:

  1. Same-day rule: Shares bought and sold on the same day are matched first.
  2. 30-day rule (bed and breakfast): Shares sold and then repurchased within 30 days are matched against the repurchase, preventing artificial loss crystallisation.
  3. Section 104 pool: Any remaining shares are matched against the pooled average cost.

For investment clubs with multiple members joining at different times, this creates an additional complication: gains need to be allocated fairly between members based on how long they've been invested and how much they've contributed. This is where Capital Equalisation Adjustments come in.

HWSW handles all of this automatically — every transaction, every member, every tax year.
