Bundesverband Alternative Investments e.V. (BAI)

Baillie Gifford Investment Management (Europe) Ltd.

Baillie Gifford is an investment company founded in Scotland in 1908 and still run by its partners. This ownership structure allows us to focus on our clients and their investments while taking a long-term perspective. Our investment philosophy is simple yet sophisticated: we look for companies whose exceptional growth potential is not yet properly appreciated by the market. This applies to both private companies and those listed on the stock exchange. At Baillie Gifford, there is no separation between the private equity specialists and the public market teams. We see our core mission as providing capital to innovative companies so that they can use their business models to help change the world for the better. We call this "Actual Investing".
