Local authorities

We have more than 30 years’ experience serving Local Government Pension Scheme (LGPS) clients. Our primary aim is to achieve strong returns and add value to help you meet your obligations. So our priorities align with yours as we make long-term sustainable investments. Baillie Gifford manages more LGPS assets than any other active manager. This reflects the longevity of our relationships and the level of our resources. We’re grateful for our LGPS clients’ understanding, trust and support.
