Tiger Brokers (Singapore), on Aug 4, announced its partnership with Azimut Investment Management to onboard Azimut’s funds onto its platform.
Azimut Investment Management is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Azimut Group, one of Europe’s leading independent asset managers.
Through the partnership, Azimut’s customers will be able to seamlessly invest in a wide range of products that are offered through the Tiger Brokers platform.
The collaboration will also allow Azimut’s customers to perform transactions independently without engaging an Azimut intermediary to implement investment decisions on their behalf, thereby enabling them to execute investment decisions in real-time
Furthermore, Azimut’s second generation customers, who are typically younger, tech-savvy, high net worth individuals who seek growing autonomy in their investment decisions, will benefit from continued advice from relationship managers to maximise the returns on their invested assets.
In addition, customer accounts that require active management from Azimut relationship managers will also be easily accessible via the Tiger Brokers platform.
