Alliance Trust

ISIN: GB00B11V7W98 WKN: A0JJ28 Alliance Trust is an international investment and financial services group, specializing in fund management, pensions and investment services. Alliance Trust is currently the UK’s largest generalist investment trust company investing on a global basis across all major markets and sectors. It manages over £2.3 billion of assets (as at 30/07/09). Established in 1888, AT’s historic headquarters is in Dundee with other offices in Edinburgh, London and Hong Kong.

The history of the company goes back into 1873, when a group of Dundee businessmen, who had made their fortunes in jute production, formed a venture to lend money to immigrant farmers in Oregon in 1873. This was the first of several Dundee land and mortgage companies.

The Company has three divisions: Alliance Trust Savings, AT Asset Management and Alliance Trust Equity Partners.

In 2006, Alliance Trust launched a new Asia-Pacific Asset Management subsidiary in Hong Kong. This offers investors the potential for participation in the growth prospects of the Asia-Pacific region.

Its other financial services subsidiary company, Alliance Trust Savings Limited, offers a range of competitive investment dealing products including share dealing Investment Plans, ISAs, PEPs and SIPPs.

The Company is listed on London Stock Exchange (code: ATST).
