Intention to raise equity
The Board of Baillie Gifford China Growth Trust plc (the "Company") is pleased to announce it is contemplating an equity raise in response to strong demand for the Company's shares.
Since seeking Shareholder approval on 9 November 2020 to renew the authorities to allot an additional 20% of the Company's issued share capital (as at 5 November 2020), the Board is mindful that this authority alone may not be sufficient to satisfy the continued demand for the Company's shares. It is envisaged that an equity raise would help satisfy further market demand and support the Company's growth.
Further details will be announced in due course.
