IF WINNING MANDATES, while running a successful business with happy employees, were a race, independent asset manager Baillie Gifford would be a winner. Its slow but steady pace at growing the business has resulted in its being widely considered a highly successful asset management firm.
Baillie Gifford’s CEO, Alex Callander (pictured right), will not disclose the firm’s profit and loss account, but assets under management grew from £19 billion last year to £29 billion ($53 billion) as at the middle of last month.
The firm has also received the seal of approval of big mutual fund managers such as Vanguard.
