Bank of England Quarterly Bulletin, June 1985. The survey points out that there is no way of telling what proportion of the total UK fund management industry has been captured by the returned data. The survey captures only the business in the competitive market place. A vast volume of funds are also managed within pension funds and insurance companies which do not actively solicit external business. The definition of investments in the survey included United Kingdom and foreign securities (including eurobonds), money market assets, and bank deposits, commodity and financial futures, options, participations in collective investment undertakings (such as unit trusts) and property.
The first investment trust, the Foreign and Colonial Investment Trust, was set up in 1868 with an initial subscribed capital of £1m. By the middle of 1985, its gross assets approached £1bn.
