BAILLIE GIFFORD FUNDS
CODE OF ETHICS
EFFECTIVE JUNE 29, 2000
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
INTRODUCTION
FIDUCIARY DUTY
This Code of Ethics is based on the principle that you, as a trustee or
officer of Baillie Gifford Funds (the TRUST), owe a fiduciary duty to the
shareholders (the SHAREHOLDERS) of the funds of the Trust (the FUNDS).
Accordingly, you must avoid activities, interests and relationships that might
interfere or appear to interfere with making decisions in the best interests of
our Shareholders.
At all times, you must:
(1) PLACE THE INTERESTS OF OUR SHAREHOLDERS FIRST. In other words, as a
fiduciary you must scrupulously avoid serving your own personal interests
ahead of the interests of our Shareholders. You may not cause a Fund to
take action, or not to take action, for your personal benefit rather than
the benefit of the Shareholders. For example, you would violate this Code
if you caused a Fund to purchase a Security you owned for the purpose of
increasing the price of that Security. You would also violate this Code if
you made a personal investment in a Security that might be an appropriate
investment for a Fund without first considering the Security as an
investment for the Fund.
(2) CONDUCT ALL OF YOUR PERSONAL SECURITIES TRANSACTIONS IN FULL COMPLIANCE
WITH THIS CODE. The Trust encourages you and your family to develop
personal investment programs. However, you must not take any action in
connection with your personal investments that could cause even the
appearance of unfairness or impropriety. Accordingly, you must comply with
the policies and procedures set forth in this Code under the heading
PERSONAL SECURITIES TRANSACTIONS. In addition, you must comply with all
other applicable laws and regulations including those concerning insider
trading. Doubtful situations should be resolved against your personal
trading.
(3) AVOID TAKING INAPPROPRIATE ADVANTAGE OF YOUR POSITION. The receipt of
investment opportunities, gifts or gratuities from persons seeking business
with the Trust directly or on behalf of a Fund, Shareholder or affiliate
could call into question the independence of your business judgment.
Accordingly, you must comply with the policies and procedures set forth in
this Code under the heading FIDUCIARY DUTIES. Doubtful situations should be
resolved against your personal interest.
APPLICATION
<PAGE>
Certain of the officers and Trustees of the Trust are officers and/or

pursuant to Rule 17j-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. Any
Trustee or officer of the Trust, who is subject to the Code of Ethics of BGOL
who complies with such Code, shall not be subject to the provisions of this
Code.

PERSONAL SECURITIES TRANSACTIONS
TRADING IN GENERAL
-2-
<PAGE>
You may not engage, and you may not permit any other person or entity to
engage, in any purchase or sale of a Security (other than an Exempt Security) in
which you have, or by reason of the transaction will acquire, Beneficial
Ownership, unless the transaction is an Exempt Transaction.
SECURITIES
The following are SECURITIES:
Any note, stock, treasury stock, bond, debenture, evidence of indebtedness,
certificate of interest or participation in any profit-sharing agreement,
collateral-trust certificate, preorganization certificate or subscription,
transferable share, investment contract, voting-trust certificate, certificate
of deposit for a security, fractional undivided interest in oil, gas, or other
mineral rights, any put, call, straddle, option or privilege on any security
(including a certificate of deposit) or on any group or index of securities
(including any interests therein or based on the value thereof), or any put,
call, straddle, option or privilege entered into on a national securities
exchange relating to foreign currency, or, in general, any interest or
instrument commonly known as a security, or any certificate of interest or
participation in, temporary or interim certificate for, receipt for, guarantee
of, or warrant or right to subscribe to or purchase, any security.
The following are not SECURITIES:
Commodities, futures and options traded on a commodities exchange,
including currency futures. However, futures and options on any group or index
of Securities are Securities.
EXEMPT SECURITIES
The following are Exempt Securities:
(1) Securities issued by the Government of the United States.
(2) Bankers' acceptances, bank certificates of deposit, commercial paper, bank
repurchase agreements and such other money market instruments as may be
designated from time to time by the Compliance Committee.
(3) Shares of registered open-end investment companies.
-3-
<PAGE>
BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP
You are considered to have Beneficial Ownership of Securities if you have
or share a direct or indirect PECUNIARY INTEREST in the Securities.
You have a Pecuniary Interest in Securities if you have the opportunity,
directly or indirectly, to profit or share in any profit derived from a
transaction in the Securities.
The following are examples of an indirect Pecuniary Interest in Securities:
(1) Securities held by members of your IMMEDIATE FAMILY sharing the same
household; however, this presumption may be rebutted by convincing evidence
that profits derived from transactions in these Securities will not provide
you with any economic benefit.
Immediate family means any child, stepchild, grandchild, parent,
stepparent, grandparent, spouse, sibling, mother-in-law,
father-in-law, son-in-law, daughter-in-law, brother-in-law, or
sister-in-law, and includes any adoptive relationship.
(2) Your interest as a general partner in Securities held by a general or
limited partnership.
(3) Your interest as a manager-member in the Securities held by a limited
liability company.
You do NOT have an indirect Pecuniary Interest in Securities held by a
corporation, partnership, limited liability company or other entity in which you
hold an equity interest, UNLESS you are a controlling equityholder or you have
or share investment control over the Securities held by the entity.
The following circumstances constitute Beneficial Ownership by you of
Securities held by a trust:
(1) Your ownership of Securities as a trustee where either you or members of
your immediate family have a vested interest in the principal or income of
the trust.
(2) Your ownership of a vested beneficial interest in a trust.
(3) Your status as a settlor of a trust, unless the consent of all of the
beneficiaries is required in order for you to revoke the trust.
EXEMPT TRANSACTIONS
The following are EXEMPT TRANSACTIONS:
-4-
<PAGE>
(1) Any transaction in Securities in an account over which you do not have any
direct or indirect influence or control. There is a presumption that you
can exert some measure of influence or control over accounts held by
members of your immediate family sharing the same household, but this
presumption may be rebutted by convincing evidence.
(2) Purchases of Securities under dividend reinvestment plans.
(3) Purchases of Securities by exercise of rights issued to the holders of a
class of Securities PRO RATA, to the extent they are issued with respect to
Securities of which you have Beneficial Ownership.
(4) Acquisitions or dispositions of Securities as the result of a stock
dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, merger, consolidation, spin-off
or other similar corporate distribution or reorganization applicable to all
holders of a class of Securities of which you have Beneficial Ownership.
(5) Subject to the restrictions on participation in private placements set
forth below under PRIVATE PLACEMENTS, acquisitions or dispositions of
Securities of a PRIVATE ISSUER. A PRIVATE ISSUER is an issuer which has no
outstanding publicly traded Securities, and no outstanding Securities which
are convertible into or exchangeable for, or represent the right to
purchase or otherwise acquire, publicly traded Securities. However, you
will have Beneficial Ownership of Securities held by a private issuer whose
equity Securities you hold, unless you are not a controlling equityholder
and do not have or share investment control over the Securities held by the
entity.
(6) Any transaction in Securities (other than Exempt Securities) by a Trustee
of the Trust who is neither an officer nor an ADVISORY PERSON (as such term
is defined in Section (e)(2) of Rule 17j-1 of the Investment Company Act of
1940, as amended) of the Trust, so long as the Trustee did not know and, in
the ordinary course of fulfilling his or her official duties as a Trustee,
should not have known, that during the 15-day period immediately preceding
or after the date of the transaction, such Securities were purchased or
sold, or considered for purchase or sale, on behalf of a Fund.
(7) Transactions in Securities traded within the preceding fifteen days for a
Fund provided that (i) the trading for the Fund has been completed and (ii)
the trade in which the Trustee or officer has or acquires Beneficial
Ownership is not contrary to the trade done for the Fund.
(8) Such other classes of transactions as may be exempted from time to time by
the Compliance Committee based upon a determination that the transactions
do not involve any realistic possibility of a violation of Rule 17j-1 under
the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The Compliance Committee
may exempt designated classes of transactions from any of the provisions of
this Code except the provisions set forth below under REPORTING
-5-
<PAGE>
(9) Such other specific transactions as may be exempted from time to time by a
Compliance Officer. On a case-by-case basis when no abuse is involved, a
Compliance Officer may exempt a specific transaction from any of the
provisions of this Code except the provisions set forth below under
REPORTING.
CIRCUMSTANCES REQUIRING PRECLEARANCE
If you have Beneficial Ownership of Securities which are not Exempt
Securities and which cannot be sold in Exempt Transactions, such Securities may
be purchased or sold only in compliance with the procedures set forth below
under PRECLEARANCE PROCEDURES.
The Compliance Committee, currently the Secretary of the Funds, may
designate as Exempt Transactions purchases and sales of Securities that are
purchased or sold in compliance with the procedures set forth below under
PRECLEARANCE PROCEDURES.
PRECLEARANCE PROCEDURES
If a Securities transaction requires preclearance:
(1) The Securities may not be purchased or sold on any day during which there
is a pending BUY or SELL order in the same Security on behalf of a Fund
until that order is executed or withdrawn.
(2) The Securities may not be purchased or sold during the period which begins
seven days before and ends seven days after the day on which a Fund trades
in the same Security.
(3) The Securities may be purchased or sold only if you have asked a Compliance
Officer to preclear the purchase or sale, the Compliance Officer has given
you preclearance in writing, and the purchase or sale is executed by the
close of business on the day preclearance is given. Preclearance will not
be given unless a determination is made that the purchase or sale complies
with this Code and the foregoing restrictions. The form for requesting
preclearance is attached to this Code as Appendix I.
INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERINGS
Unless you are an independent Trustee, you may not acquire Beneficial
Ownership of any Securities (other than Exempt Securities) in an initial public
offering.
-6-
<PAGE>
PRIVATE PLACEMENTS
Unless you are an independent Trustee, you may not acquire Beneficial
Ownership of any Securities (other than Exempt Securities) in a private
placement, unless you have received the prior written approval of the Compliance
Committee. Approval will not be given unless a determination is made that the
investment opportunity should not be reserved for one or more Funds, and that
the opportunity to invest has not been offered to you by virtue of your
position.
If you have acquired Beneficial Ownership of Securities in a private
placement, you must DISCLOSE your investment when you play a part in any
consideration of an investment by a Fund in the issuer of the Securities, and
any decision to make such an investment must be INDEPENDENTLY REVIEWED by a
portfolio manager who does not have Beneficial Ownership of any Securities of
the issuer.
SHORT-TERM TRADING PROFITS
Unless you are an independent Trustee, you may not profit from the purchase
and sale, or sale and purchase, within 60 calendar days, of the same (or
equivalent) Securities (other than Exempt Securities) of which you have
Beneficial Ownership. Any such short-term trade must be unwound, or, if that is
not practical, the profits must be contributed to a charitable organization.
You are considered to profit from a short-term trade if Securities of which
you have Beneficial Ownership are sold for more than their purchase price, even
though the Securities purchased and the Securities sold are held of record or
beneficially by different persons or entities.
REPORTING
USE OF BROKER-DEALERS
Unless you are an independent Trustee, you may not engage, and you may not
permit any other person or entity to engage, in any purchase or sale of publicly
traded Securities (other than Exempt Securities) of which you have, or by reason
of the transaction will acquire, Beneficial Ownership, except through a
registered broker-dealer.
REPORTING OF TRANSACTIONS
Unless you are an independent Trustee, you must cause each broker-dealer
who maintains an account for Securities of which you have Beneficial Ownership
to provide to a Compliance Officer hereunder, on a timely basis, duplicate
copies of confirmations of all transactions in the account and of periodic
statements for the account and you must report to a
-7-
<PAGE>
Compliance Officer hereunder, on a timely basis, all transaction effected
without the use of a broker in Securities (other than Exempt Securities) of
which you have Beneficial Ownership.
ANNUAL REPORTS
Unless you are an independent Trustee, you must disclose your holdings of
all Securities (other than Exempt Securities) of which you have Beneficial
Ownership upon commencement of your election as an officer or Trustee by the
Trust or the effective date of this Code, whichever occurs later, and annually
thereafter. The form for this purpose is attached to this Code as Appendix II.
INDEPENDENT TRUSTEES
If you are an independent Trustee, you must provide a quarterly report of
any transaction in Securities (other than Exempt Securities) of which you had,
or by reason of the transaction acquired, Beneficial Ownership, and as to which
you knew, or in the ordinary course of fulfilling your official duties as
Trustee should have known, that during the 15-day period immediately preceding
or after the date of the transaction, such Securities were purchased or sold, or
considered for purchase or sale, on behalf of a Fund. The report must be
provided to a Compliance Officer hereunder within 10 days after the end of each
calendar quarter. The form for this purpose if attached to this Code as Appendix
III.
As of the effective date of this Code, the independent Trustees are John G.
Barrie, Jr. and John M. Smith.
FIDUCIARY DUTIES
GIFTS
You may not accept any investment opportunity, gift, gratuity or other
thing of more than nominal value, from any person or entity that does business,
or desires to do business, with the Trust directly or on behalf of a Fund or any
affiliate thereof. You may accept gifts from a single giver so long as their
aggregate annual value does not exceed $100, and you may attend business meals,
sporting events and other entertainment events at the expense of a giver, so
long as the expense is reasonable and both you and the giver are present.
SERVICE AS A DIRECTOR
Unless you are an independent Trustee, you may not serve on the board of
directors or other governing board of a publicly traded company, unless you have
received the prior written approval of the Compliance Committee. Approval will
not be given unless a determination is made that your service on the board would
be consistent with the interests of our Funds. If you
-8-
<PAGE>
are permitted to serve on the board of a publicly traded entity, you will be
ISOLATED from those portfolio employees who make investment decisions with
respect to the securities of that entity, through a "Chinese Wall" ore other
procedures.
