insightChina governance - should you take the plunge?

What is important for investors is how to capture the current contributors and engines for future growth of China economy regardless whether the underlying stocks are SOEs or non-SOEs.

Are all smart beta products smart? This is a question I've asked a few times over the last few years but always got a "nuanced" answer depending on the product being marketed.

Can you trust the numbers reported by all Chinese listed corporations? Absolutely not. But that doesn't mean smart beta can't generate alpha.

Chinese SOEs may be worth revisiting
  • 朱榮熙

Chinese state-owned enterprises (SOEs) may gain traction again amid Chinese government’s commitment to stabilize the capital market, market value management implementation, and attractive yield against the government bonds. Central Huijin, often considered to be the national team, is approved by CSRC to be the new controlling shareholders of 8 small to mid-size financial companies, with an aim to stabilize the capital market and mitigate potential risks. Investors are also anticipating further policy support for the financial sector, expected to be announced at the Lujiazui Forum in Shanghai. This led to the strong capital inflow to nonbanking financials and outperformance of the sector. Moreover, a couple of SOEs have revealed their market value management plans or valuation improvement plans. Local brokers believed this trend will continue and gain momentum in the rest of this year, leading to the revaluation of these SOEs. On the short-term yield, China’s one- and three-year bonds fell to a four-month low due to heavy purchases of state banks. Onshore traders speculated that the PBOC was involved in the purchases. The PBOC’s potential purchases is one of the tools to bring liquidity to the market. As the bond yield drops and liquidity increases, the relatively higher SOE’s dividend yield would look appealing to investors, further supporting their share prices. To capitalize the above trend and diversify from growth related stocks, investors may consider our Premia CSI Caixin China Bedrock Economy ETF, which places a significant emphasis on SOEs, accounting for over 70% of its portfolio, benefiting from the government support and the potential high dividend yield.
