Lindsell Train Investment Trust PLC - investment trust created by Michael Lindsell and Nick Train and managed by Lindsell Train Ltd that invests for long-term total returns while maintaining real purchasing power of capital in sterling terms - Announces a tender offer to buy back up to 20% of its issued share capital. Says that since its launch in 2001, it has delivered an annualised net asset value total return of plus 10.5%, ahead of the MSCI World Index's plus 7.8%.
