Opening up a B2B product to a B2C audience.
While most of Columbia Threadneedle Investments’ products are geared toward a B2B audience — think investing through a financial professional, not buying them through a platform like Robinhood — the $75-million Threadneedle (Lux) Asian Equity Income fund was going to be registered for sale to retail (individual) investors in Singapore.
