Schroeders Planning to Expand Into India

Schroeders is in the early stages of planning to expand into India and reportedly in talks with a number of possible partners.

Schroeders already has offices in the Asia Pacific region, in Australia, Indonesia, Singapore, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Korea and China.

Assets in India’s mutual funds soared 73% in 2006 to $72 billion.
