They were open-minded family. His mother was the first female mayor and father was a philosopher and economist.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Keynes studied mathematics at Cambridge University. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After finishing, he found a job in the India Office. At the same time, he worked on a dissertation. That secured him a membership at King&#8217;s College. He stayed at Indian position till 1908 after which he came back to Cambridge. He joined the treasury at the beginning of World War One. When the war was ended, he issued &#8216;The Economic Consequences of the Peace&#8217; which became a best-seller. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Between two World Wars, he earned a very steady amount of money by investing in the financial markets. Also, he continued his theoretical work. His most famous piece &#8216;The General Theory of Employment, Interest, and Money&#8217; was issued in 1936. Even today, it is the caliber for economic theory all over the world. After that book, it was so easy for Keynes to become a famous economist in the UK and with the most influence. With the beginning of World War Two, he continued to work for the treasury again and became a member of the house of lords.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"John_Maynard_Keynes_built_macroeconomics_in_the_1930s\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">John Maynard Keynes built <a href=\"https:\/\/traders-paradise.com\/recommends\/trading-with-success-guide-for-beginners\">macroeconomics<\/a> in the 1930s.<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He is largely disregarded now.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The central idea of this economic school of thought is that government intervention can secure the economy.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">During the Great Depression of the 1930s, economic theory was incapable to explain the circumstances of the dangerous economic collapse. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Keynes produced a revolution in economic thinking for that time. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The stand of Keynes\u2019s theory is the idea that aggregate demand (a theory of total spending in the economy) is driving power in the economy.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Aggregate demand is the total of spending by households, businesses, and the government.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Further, Keynes asserted that free markets have no ability to balance mechanisms that direct to full employment. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Keynesian economists support government intervention through public policies.

He had managed the Fidelity <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Special Situations fund from December 1979 to December 2007. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Over this 28-year period, the fund achieved annualized growth of 19.5%, far in excess of the 13.5% growth of the wider stock exchange, turning a \u00a31,000 investment into \u00a3147,000. \u00a0Until April 2014 he managed Fidelity China Special Situations PLC, a London Stock Exchange-listed investment trust.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He started a career at the age of 29, he was recruited by Fidelity as one of their first London based investment managers. In surveys of professional investors, he is regularly voted the fund manager most respected by his peers. <\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Bolton_began_managing_Special_Situations_a_UK_equity_OEIC_when_he_joined_Fidelity_in_1979_and_continued_until_2007\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bolton began managing Special Situations (a UK equity OEIC) when he joined Fidelity in 1979 and continued until 2007. <\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He managed other funds alongside Special Situations during this time. From November 1985 to December 2002, he managed the Fidelity European Fund (a European equity OEIC). He managed the Fidelity European Growth fund (a European equity SICAV) from 1990 to 2003, Fidelity European Values PLC (a UK-listed investment trust) from 1991 to 2001, and Fidelity Special Values PLC (also a UK-listed investment trust) from 1994 to 2007.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In 2006 his Special Situations Fund was split. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The success of the fund had brought in so much money from investors, it had become the UK&#8217;s largest open-ended fund (OEIC) and it was feared that the fund was becoming too big to manage successfully. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The fund was split into the UK and Global Special Situations funds. The Global Fund and the UK fund continuing under Bolton&#8217;s stewardship until the end of 2007. \u00a0With Bolton&#8217;s step back from fund management, many questioned whether the fund could continue to outperform the market in the future. And not without the reason.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bolton&#8217;s former funds suffered amongst the worst redemptions in 2007. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Investors withdrew \u00a3335m from the Special Situations fund and \u00a3508m from Global Special Situations. However, redemptions in both funds slowed significantly in 2008, and in March 2010, at \u00a33 billion, the UK fund is almost back to the same size as when Bolton stepped down.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When he stopped managing funds in 2007, he took a full-time role in mentoring and developing newer investment managers.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He still works with Fidelity.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Nick_Leslau\"><\/span><b>Nick Leslau<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<h6 style=\"text-align: right;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Nick_Leslau-2\"><\/span><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-7840 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/traders-paradise.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/the-best-uk-investors-all-the-time-7.jpg\" alt=\"Nick Leslau\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/traders-paradise.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/the-best-uk-investors-all-the-time-7.jpg 800w, https:\/\/traders-paradise.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/the-best-uk-investors-all-the-time-7-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/traders-paradise.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/the-best-uk-investors-all-the-time-7-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/traders-paradise.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/the-best-uk-investors-all-the-time-7-370x208.jpg 370w, https:\/\/traders-paradise.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/the-best-uk-investors-all-the-time-7-760x428.jpg 760w, https:\/\/traders-paradise.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/the-best-uk-investors-all-the-time-7-424x239.jpg 424w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><span style=\"color: #00ccff;\"><em><strong>Nick Leslau<\/strong><\/em><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h6>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This famous UK investor was born on 18 August 1959.

He had completed a degree in estate management at South Bank University and became a chartered surveyor with Burford. At age 23, he became CEO of Burford Estate &amp; Property.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Wanting to move further into the property, contacted Nigel Wray to engineer a reverse takeover of Wray&#8217;s listed company Chartsearch in 1986 for \u00a38 million. They expanded the company into a \u00a31 billion enterprise, buying large parts of Oxford Street and the Trocadero center. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In 1997, Leslau and Wray set up their own small property company MAYBEAT Limited, which they merged into one of Michael Edelson&#8217;s Alternative Investment Market-listed shell companies called Prestbury Group Plc.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The board consisted of Leslau, Wray, Viscount Astor, John Hodson (the then chief executive of private bank Singer &amp; Friedlander), and Edelson. Over the next two years, it produced a return of 150% on net asset value. Leslau grew its total value to several hundreds of millions of pounds before taking it private in 2004.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In 1999, Leslau founded an investment vehicle, Edenhawk, collectively with Wray, Archie Norman, and Julian Richer. And once again, they merged the company into an Edelson shell company, Knutsford Plc. The plan was to acquire a retail business to take advantage of the retailing skills of Norman, a former Chairman of Asda, and Richer, who had built up the retail group Richer Sounds. <\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Within_weeks_the_value_of_Knutsford_had_soared_to_1_billion\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Within weeks the value of Knutsford had soared to \u00a31 billion. <\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">They attracted attention from financial media around the world as potential acquisition targets were touted by the media such as Marks &amp; Spencers and Sainsbury&#8217;s. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Knutsford concluded a deal with WI Link (which continues to trade successfully).\u00a0 <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">No one could hope to achieve the dizzy expectations generated by the media in the weeks after flotation.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Knutsford announced the end of the dot com boom in the UK. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In February 2001 Leslau set up a private company, Prestbury Investment Holdings, funded by HBOS and Sir Tom Hunter. <\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Leslau is now chairman of Prestbury Investments.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He has sat on many quoted and unquoted company boards including, most recently, Max Property Group Plc, and is a Member of the Bank of England Property Forum.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Jim_Slater\"><\/span><b>Jim Slater<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<h6 style=\"text-align: right;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Jim_Slater_is_one_of_the_best_UK_investors_all_the_time\"><\/span><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-7841 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/traders-paradise.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/the-best-uk-investors-all-the-time-8.jpg\" alt=\"Jim Slater\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/traders-paradise.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/the-best-uk-investors-all-the-time-8.jpg 800w, https:\/\/traders-paradise.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/the-best-uk-investors-all-the-time-8-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/traders-paradise.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/the-best-uk-investors-all-the-time-8-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/traders-paradise.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/the-best-uk-investors-all-the-time-8-370x208.jpg 370w, https:\/\/traders-paradise.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/the-best-uk-investors-all-the-time-8-760x428.jpg 760w, https:\/\/traders-paradise.com\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/the-best-uk-investors-all-the-time-8-424x239.jpg 424w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><span style=\"color: #00ccff;\"><em><strong>Jim Slater is one of the best UK investors all the time<\/strong><\/em><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h6>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">James Derrick Slater was born on 13 March 1929 and died on 18 November 2015). He was a British accountant, investor, and business writer. Slater rose to prominence in the 1970s as a businessman and financier. And one of\u00a0the best UK investors.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In 1964, investor Jim Slater acquired control of H Lottery &amp; Co Ltd, a \u00a31.5m public company, which with his business partner Peter Walker they renamed Slater Walker Securities. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the 1960s and 1970s, James Slater was one of the top players in the City. He was active in business and investing until his death in 2015.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Slater was, at the beginning of his career, a chartered accountant and writer.

But it crashed in the banking crisis of 1974. <\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The firm was in connection with acquiring businesses and selling off anything that was considered to be surplus to demands.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">During the secondary banking crisis in 1975, Slater Walker faced financial difficulties and received support from the Bank of England. Slater resigned as chairman in October 1975, because the Singapore Government began to try to extradite him from the UK for alleged offenses by the company in Singapore referring to the alleged misuse of more than \u00a34 million of company funds in share deals. The Singapore government&#8217;s attempt to extradite Slater was dismissed by the Chief Metropolitan Magistrate at Horseferry Road Magistrates&#8217; Court in 1977. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In separate proceedings, following the takeover of the company by the Bank of England, a prosecution was brought against Slater by the Department of Trade alleging 15 counts of offenses under the Companies Act. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Slater was guilty of the Companies Act offenses and fined \u00a315 per count. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Fortunately, the court accepted that the offenses were purely technical. Also that Slater didn&#8217;t act dishonestly and that there was no question of him having made any personal gain through committing them. <\/span><\/p>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Finding_himself_technically_bankrupt_after_the_collapse_of_Slater_Walker_Jim_Slater_invested_his_residual_funds_and_repaid_all_of_his_personal_creditors_within_a_few_years_And_paid_with_interest\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Finding himself technically bankrupt after the collapse of Slater Walker, Jim Slater invested his residual funds and repaid all of his personal creditors within a few years.

But he was absolutely responsible for its popularity as a stock-picking tool. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In order to find a way to help investors to filter the full market to find out which shares are worth looking at, Slater developed the Company Really Essential Financial Statistics products \u2014 REFS.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Be focused on small caps was Slater\u2019s investment style. His famous statement was \u201cElephants don&#8217;t gallop.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">That explains the idea that big companies cannot double in size, but small ones can. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He has also devoted himself to knowledge. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The website The Motley Fool wrote about Slater:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8220;He doesn\u2019t want to know a little about everything, he wants to know everything about a few things. If those few things include a handful of neglected companies, the chances of his making money should be greatly increased.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">His hobby was chess. Amongst other sponsorships he donated $125,000 to make possible the 1972 World Chess Championship between Bobby Fischer and Boris Spassky in Reykjav\u00edk, Iceland, doubling the total prize fund.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_these_UK_investors\"><\/span><b>Why these UK investors?<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>This is our choice of the best UK investors.
