Expert Manager Selection

Shareholders benefit from having Willis Towers Watson (WTW) as our investment manager.4 WTW is a leading global investment group, directly managing $148.65 billion for institutional investors and advising them on $3.4 trillion.6 Its scale helps us to keep costs down for investors, while the global breadth and depth of WTW’s resources has enabled it to build and manage a diverse team of ten best-in-class1 Stock Pickers with complementary investment approaches for Alliance Trust.

 

Focused Stock Picking

WTW tasks each Stock Picker with investing in no more than 20 stocks in which they have the highest level of conviction.7 The resulting portfolio is diversified across countries and industries but its individual holdings are very different from any index-tracking fund.

We believe this diversified but highly active approach makes Alliance Trust an ideal holding for all generations of investors, whether you’re paying for university or a first home, saving for retirement or leaving a legacy.
