Gardening and investment both require an eye on the future
A Beautiful gardens are not made overnight, and neither are investment returns. Although long-term investing does require a degree of patience, the advantages are significant.
It requires courage and conviction to stay invested when markets are experiencing lows, but, if you look at where the markets are now compared to where they were in 2008/2009, it’s clear it can pay off.
Keeping on top of emerging trends, such as new developments in technology, is also important and a key part of our role is identifying these trends and anticipating their potential impact on the markets and the underlying businesses.
Q Gardens provide great benefits. What are the benefits of successful investment management?

True blues
I HAVE been planting English bluebells. They grow in their millions in the beechwoods that surround us—but not in our own garden. They are, however, a protected species.
