TIME JUST MAKES IT TASTIER .
Scottish Mortgage Investment Trust believes in investment not speculation . We painstakingly identify those companies that we believe will deliver long-term growth and then we stick with them through thick and thin , providing our investment case remains valid . In fact we like to think of ourselves as ‘ owners not renters ’, which is why we don ’ t get side-tracked by short-term share price movements .
But don ’ t just take our word for it . Over the last five years Scottish Mortgage , managed by Baillie Gifford , has delivered a total return of 182.7 %* compared to 104.7 %* for the index . And Scottish Mortgage is low-cost with an ongoing charges figure of just 0.45 %. †
