The Chinese economy

China has become the world's second largest economy by GDP. Over the past 40 years, China's fully state-regulated agricultural economy transformed into the innovative (partly market-led) economy of today.

China has developed very strongly in innovation and entrepreneurship. Startups are reaping the benefits of this, with some even developing into well-known companies such as NIO, Ant Financial and United Imaging Healthcare. The Chinese government is pushing for an economy that focuses even more on innovative manufacturing. In doing so, mass production and domestic consumption would become less important to the Chinese economy.

The steady growth of the Chinese economy is a reason for many investors to include Chinese investments in their portfolios. However, the growth has not been without setbacks. Events such as the COVID-19 pandemic, the trade war and China's "Big Tech crackdown" have partially inhibited growth. The "Big Tech crackdown" refers to when the Chinese government decided to introduce more regulation and legislation for tech companies, which has affected their stock prices. Investing in the Chinese economy therefore offers risks but also opportunities. To be somewhat protected from large risks with individual companies, ETFs offer a smart solution because you can invest and diversify with one product.

Why invest in China ETFs?

With China ETFs, you can invest in the world's second-largest economy in a diversified way. Although some of China's companies are still state-owned, there are also companies that trade their shares publicly. On the Chinese (and often US) stock exchanges, you can find companies that are world-famous, such as Alibaba, Baidu, NIO, Tencent and many more.

China ETFs track the various indices and companies on the Chinese stock market. For example, you can invest in the XTRACKERS MSCI CHINA UCITS 1C ETF, which tracks MSCI China. This index includes large cap and mid cap companies listed in Shanghai, Hong Kong, Shenzhen and outside of China. This ETF includes the heavyweights Alibaba and Tencent, among others. In addition to this ETF, there are many other China ETFs, of various shapes and sizes. All information can be found in the accompanying KIID.
