Financial Times Guide to Investment Trusts by John Baron
A comprehensive and practical guide to investment trusts. These investment vehicles have been underused by investors in the past, but that is set to change now that the Retail Distribution Review has banned commissions and put investment trusts on a level playing field. The book explains what investment trusts are and focuses on how to construct and run a trust portfolio. It offers investors, both experienced and novice, a concise and jargon free guide to these lucrative investment vehicles.
