Baillie Gifford European Growth Trust

Baillie Gifford European Growth Trust (formerly Foreign & Colonial Eurotrust, The European Investment Trust) is a large British investment trust dedicated to investments in companies operating in Continental Europe. The company was established in 1972 as Foreign & Colonial Eurotrust.[1][2]

The fund was managed by F&C Asset Management until 2010, when it was replaced by Edinburgh Partners.[3][4]

In 2019 a review of management led to the appointment of Baillie Gifford, and the trust was renamed as Baillie Gifford European Growth Trust.[4][5]
