As internet and tech companies acknowledge financial services as a big growth opportunity, the world's third-largest smartphone maker has teamed up with E Fund Management, to sell a money-market fund through a finance app bundled with Xiaomi's operating system.
Xiaomi said that a newly created financial unit was planning to offer other products such as index funds, securities brokerage and consumer loans. “We're aiming to build a smart platform to help financial partners find high quality clients, while helping our users earn money and borrow money,” said Hong Feng, Xiaomi co-founder.
