Investment Trusts

An investment trust is a quoted company that invests in the shares and securities of other companies, and sometimes other investments, such as property or bonds, with the aim of making profits for its shareholders.

You can become a shareholder in one or more of our trusts by investing through our Share Plan, ISA and Children’s Savings Plan. We currently manage eight investment trusts that cover general, international and specialist markets. Please remember that the value of shares can go down as well as up and you may not get back the amount you invested.

For more information on any of our products please visit our Literature Library.
