Investment trusts are closed-ended collective investments which are set up as public limited companies. One of the key differences between an investment trust and a unit trust, is that an investment trust may borrow to invest, thereby creating leverage. This creates increased upside - vega in fact - but also increased risk.

Be careful out there, fellahs.
