I found this link ...MYI..

"This booklet, written for us by John
Newlands, describes the history of Murray
International Trust from its formation in
1907, under its original title of The Scottish
Western Investment Company Limited,
to the present day. Over its 111-year life,
the Company has had to live through two
World Wars and several financial crises,
the most recent example being the global
banking crisis of 2008-2009."

I must say monabri that you do a great job in digging around for stuff. I did not know that Robert Fleming was involved with the setting up of Murray International as well as so many other ITs, including of course Saints (Scottish American) and with more than a passing interest in Alliance and Second Alliance. It does not really help with the performance of the current Murray International though..............

The MYI link was mentioned in this link

https://www.itinvestor.co.uk/2020/06/20 ... -compared/

Or , more specifically, the "books" section

There's quite a bit of things that might pique one's interest....and some free downloads.

It might be worthwhile to note that the recently appointed chairman of Murray International recently died at the age of 62. Simon Fraser was a well known investment manager with Fidelity for most of his working life and, after retiring, was Chairman of F & C. I think he was just the sort of Chairman that Murray International needed and it is a great loss to the company (and to the investment community) that he has died so soon after his appointment. He would have fitted in very well with Bruce Stout I think.

The search is now on for another chairman.
