Explanation:
From ref.:

"Unit trusts are also referred to as open-ended funds, because they will always accept more cash from investors – they just become bigger to accommodate the demand. On the flip side, if there are more sellers than buyers, the fund will become smaller.

Investment trusts are also known as closed-ended funds, because they tend to raise a set amount of cash, then invest it. They do not create new shares whenever someone wants to buy them. Instead, they are listed on the stock market, so if you want to invest in them, you can buy their shares just as you would with any other listed company."
