Baillie Gifford Japan Trust: Japan through a new lens

Thursday 27 August
2.00pm - 2.45pm BST

Japan’s investment environment is changing. Inflation is now established after three decades, corporate governance reform is accelerating and technological developments are creating new growth opportunities.

Join investment manager Matthew Brett for a 45-minute webinar exploring:

  • How inflation and corporate governance reform could affect investors.
  • How digital technology, automation and video games are reshaping Japan’s investment landscape.
  • Why Japan may be well placed to benefit from advances in artificial intelligence.

Please note, as with any investment capital is at risk. A Key Information Document for the trust is available on the Baillie Gifford website.
