ROBERT Baltzer, who runs Edinburgh-based Baillie Gifford's High-Yield Bond and Investment Grade Long Bond funds, has risen to first place in The Herald's monthly table of top-performing asset managers working for Scottish investment houses.
Mr Baltzer leapfrogged Neil Veitch, of Edinburgh investment boutique SVM, to claim top spot when the latest investment performance figures for the three years to December 31 were compiled by financial publisher Citywire.
His rise to first position was achieved on the back of an improvement in his UK-wide ranking from 33rd to 15th.
