I thought I'd post here to see if there were Lemon Fools with IT expertise who could help out with Mike's question:

Are there any investment trusts specialising in banks, whose managers would possibly make possibly better informed decisions about bank shares than me? Or is the field too narrow for a banking IT?

Thanks, but that links to an ETF not an investment trust, unless I am misunderstanding. I was asking about investment trusts specifically.

I don't really feel I understand ETFs properly yet, which is a solid gold reason (in my book at least) not to invest in such things!


(Edit to expand on my point.)
