Comparison with the join States is made, showing how the US investment trusts of the mid-twenties boom days were heavily influenced by their earlier UK counterparts. However, US investment trusts differed from British investment trusts in a number of key ways, in particular how they were managed, which conduct to their relatively much worse procedure in the stock market crash of the late 1920s and early 1930s. This poor US trust performance led directly to the creation of the US open-ended fixed trust, marketed as an antidote to the generally poor management of formal closed-end investment trusts.

As confidence in mutual funds slowly returned in the United States, open-ended funds were piecemeal given more flexibility, but investment trust companies, with plow prices at a steep discount to liquidation value, and partly blamed for the Crash, were encouraged to convert to mutual fund shape by the 1936 Revenue Act. By 1944, open-end funds had overtaken investment trusts in terms of asset size, a phenomenon which did not occur in Britain for another thirty years. 2 Learning from one anothers mistakes: closed end mutual funds 1868 - 1940 Whats in a name? that which we call a rose By any other name would smell as tasty; W.
