AMP Capital Investors plans to list a fund that provides access to China’s ‘Class A’ share market on the ASX by the end of this year.
Class A shares are those traded on the Shanghai and Shenzhen stock markets. The fund will seek to raise up to $330 million. AMP Capital Investors is the first Australian company to gain a Qualified Foreign Iinstitutional Investor (QFII) license and one of only 48 companies worldwide as at the end of September. AMP Capital has been given approval from China’s State Administration of Foreign Exchange (SAFE) to invest up to $US200 million directly into China A shares and bonds.

Ryan Riedler, head of ASX core strategy, Australian equities at Cbus, says the fund will look to generate alpha locally through engagement and that internalisation will help it strengthen its connection with other market participants, as well as its brokers and service providers.
