Columbia Threadneedle says it wants to win market share from some of its larger rivals in Europe, as the $690bn asset manager gears up to make its debut in the continent’s fast-growing ETF market.

The London-based firm, which is owned by US-headquartered Ameriprise Financial, plans to roll out four active ETFs later this year. It will join a host of other asset managers that have launched active ETFs in 2025, including Jupiter and HSBC.
