Investing smarter for the world you want

At Columbia Threadneedle Investments, we invest to make a difference in your world, and the wider world. Millions of people rely on us to manage their money and invest for their future; together they entrust us with $699 billion.

We are Globally Connected

Our reach is expansive, with 2,500 people – including more than 650 investment specialists – spanning the world. But for us, a global perspective is about more than numbers, it is about the smarter advantage we create when we bring our teams’ insights together. We’ve built our diverse expertise and on-the-ground knowledge into our processes and solutions, covering almost every asset class and market.

We are Intense about Research

We share a belief that original, independent research makes investment decisions smarter. With over 200 research associates around the globe, and proprietary tools harnessing big data and next generation analytics, we turn information into forward-looking insights that add real value to investment decisions, enabling consistent and replicable outcomes for our clients.

We have a Responsible Ethos

Responsible investment decisions made today can help define the future we all seek. It’s a belief that continually pushes us forward – something that informs our activity from portfolio construction to the way we operate as a business. As a responsible investor, partner, and citizen we’re building world-leading capabilities to help our clients do well while also doing good.

We focus on Continuous Improvement

Markets don’t stand still and neither do we. Every day, we’re looking for opportunities to improve how we invest and what our clients experience – be it the independent oversight teams that ensure the robustness of our investment strategies, the emphasis we place on developing our talent, or the innovative solutions that we offer. The world is continually changing, and with it our clients’ needs, which is why we are always evolving.

Whatever world you want, our purpose is to help you achieve it.Â
