The offer is open to those who invest in a scheme managed by Standard Life Investments (SLI) through Standard Life Savings or Savings Scheme, or those that transfer existing individual savings account or personal equity plan investments.

The Moneywise Awards in 2006 saw Standard Life UK Smaller Companies Trust win the Best in Small Companies Category, while the Standard Life European Private Equity Trust was given the Best Private Equity Trust award at the Investment Trusts Magazine 2005.

Commenting on the new investment opportunity, Gordon Humphries, head of investment companies, Standard Life Investments, said: “Following the recent market correction, combined with widening discounts in the investment trust sector, this offer comes at a time when values are more attractive than they have been for some time.”
