Simplify China A Shares PLUS Income ETF (CAS)

Harnessing The Red Dragon: Making China's Equity Market Structure Work For Better Returns

China's unique market dynamics lend themselves neatly to a more structural approach which the Simplify China A Shares PLUS Income ETF has been designed to take advantage of. The A shares are the undisputed center of the action when it comes to trading activity, with 136 billion shares changing hands, or more than twenty times the volume of all the Hong Kong-listed share types combined. There are a couple of other challenges to flag. Reported financials may - at least to foreign eyes - lack the transparency investors are accustomed to in G10 markets, further complicating stock selection efforts. Moreover, China's industrial policy - itself a reflection of the government's priorities - can also exert an influence.
