https://www.worldhumorawards.org/uncategorized/e90ypylg It has been a busy period since Souter Investments released its previous Investment Review in 2016, with 10 new investments made in industries ranging from oil and gas services to financial services, business services, consumer and technology.

Sir Brian Souter commented: “Our total portfolio, excluding Stagecoach, increased in value by 9% per annum over the 12 years ended March 2019. This compares against a 5% annual return on

UK quoted equities over the same period.

“Although this does not sound like much of a difference, the compounding effect means that the value of our portfolio is 55% higher than it would be if we invested solely in the UK stock market.

I remain positive in the ability for canny investors to find value in the coming years and hopefully Souter Investments can continue to be one of those investors.

The Souter Charitable Trust has donated more than £98m to 13,000 worthwhile causes over the last 13 years and this gift will allow it to continue this important work.”
