SAINTS Scottish American Investment Company

Baillie Gifford’s sole business is investment management. Since the company was founded in 1908 it has been a partnership. Today it is owned by 47 partners all of whom work in the business.

We believe that the best investment ideas spring from thinking about future possibilities, not short-term probabilities. We set no barriers to the imagination of our investors, encouraging fresh perspectives and the use of diverse sources of information. We term ourselves Actual Investors.

We currently manage or advise some £352.4bn on behalf of clients worldwide. Whilst we are predominantly an institutional manager (circa 81% of FUM), we offer an extensive range of investment trusts and open ended funds to UK wealth managers and intermediaries.
