Investment management can sometimes feel like an intricate and complex industry, but does it have to be? Stuart Dunbar, a partner at Baillie Gifford, joins the Going Long podcast to explore the philosophy of “actual investing” – focusing on the fundamentals of deploying capital in the real world, and looking past that complexity to invest in projects that create value over time.
