Here's a statement of the obvious: The opinions expressed here are those of the participants, not those of the Mutual Fund Observer. We cannot vouch for the accuracy or appropriateness of any of it, though we do encourage civility and good humor.
FYI: Columbia Management, a group of mutual funds formerly owned by Bank of America Corp., is changing its brand name to Columbia Threadneedle Investments as its new parent looks to bolster the business in an ever more competitive climate. Ameriprise Financial Inc., based in Minneapolis, is expected to announce the brand change Monday, which links Boston-based Columbia with its UK investment group, Threadneedle Investments.
