This venture aims to capitalize on the growing wealth management market in China, leveraging Abrdn's global investment expertise and CNCBI's local market knowledge and distribution network. The partnership will focus on providing a range of investment products tailored to Chinese investors, including mutual funds and potentially other financial services. This move is part of Abrdn's broader strategy to expand its presence in Asia, amidst increasing competition from both local and international financial firms in the region.
