State Street IM and Van Lanschot Kempen IM announce partnership to further enhance investment strategies

October 1, 2025: London, Amsterdam - Today, State Street Investment Management (State Street IM) and Van Lanschot Kempen Investment Management (Van Lanschot Kempen) have announced that they are entering into a strategic partnership that will drive further innovation across their respective investment offerings in Europe.

The partnership will see the firms explore opportunities to develop active ETF products, combining Van Lanschot Kempen's specialist active management capabilities and State Street IM's ETF capabilities. Also, they will explore opportunities to partner to develop additional solutions for their respective client bases, both in private and public markets, for Wealth Management and Outsourced Chief Investment Officer clients.

This collaboration aligns with our strategic aim of partnering with industry leaders to enhance our offerings and deepen our presence in Europe.
