Overview
The company operates as an investment fund that focuses primarily on investing in A-shares of companies registered in the People's Republic of China. By committing at least 80% of its assets into the component securities of its benchmark index, and into investments with economic characteristics that mimic those securities, it seeks to mirror the equity market performance within China. The investments are accessible through the Shanghai-Hong Kong Stock Connect program or the Shenzhen-Hong Kong Stock Connect program, highlighting an emphasis on integrating with significant cross-border investment channels. Such an approach allows for direct involvement in China's equity markets while navigating the regulatory landscape that governs foreign investment in the region.
Products and Services
- A-share Investment
- Index-Based Equity Exposure
- Economic Characteristic Matching
This offering focuses on investing in A-shares of companies that are traded on either the Shanghai or Shenzhen stock exchanges but are accessible through the Shanghai-Hong Kong or Shenzhen-Hong Kong Stock Connect programs. A-shares, denominated in mainland China's renminbi, provide exposure to the Chinese domestic market, rendering this service a core aspect for investors looking to penetrate China's equity markets.
The fund aims to replicate the performance of its benchmark index, which is designed to measure the equity market performance within the People's Republic of China. By tracking an index of A-shares, the fund provides investors with a diversified approach to investing in China's market, reducing individual security risk while maintaining a targeted focus on the Chinese economy.
Alongside direct investment in the index's component securities, the fund also seeks out investments that have economic characteristics that are substantially identical to those of the securities within its benchmark index. This strategy provides additional avenues for achieving the fund's investment objectives, allowing for flexibility in asset selection while still aligning closely with the overall market performance of Chinese A-shares.
