An investment trust is an actively managed fund, with a fund manager investing in a portfolio of shares, property or other assets according to the objectives of the fund.
Investment trusts can provide an excellent opportunity for portfolio diversification across geographical areas and market sectors, as well as more niche opportunities like private equity.
Investment trusts tend to be more expensive than ETFs, to account for the research and management costs.
You can potentially lose some of your money if the fund manager doesn’t make the right choices.
Gearing can bring a positive outcome; however, it becomes a risk if the borrowed money is not invested wisely.
Like all funds, investment trusts can rise and fall in value. However, they can be more volatile than other assets due to supply and demand.
