Why now is the time to reconsider China


China is changing. Its economic growth is increasingly driven by innovations and investment in technology, data and science. Its capital markets are developing with a similar energy, on their way to becoming an integrated part of the global financial system.

Now is the time to get ahead of the opportunities as an investor.



Innovation, transformation and investment: key drivers of China’s growth


Advanced-manufacturing sectors such as ecommerce, biotechnology and electric vehicles have the potential to add more value to China's economy than traditional manufacturing, and investment flows reflect this. China's leadership role in these areas ensures that it will no longer be seen as a country that imitates others’ success.

The New China

China is pursuing its own transformative path to growth. Participate in this unique investment story.

What will the “China of the future” look like?

Some of China’s most significant transformational efforts include the success of domestic brands, a growing emphasis on sustainability and a commitment to leadership in advanced technologies. Supported by investments in R&D and infrastructure, these transformations are set to change the face of the Chinese economy over the coming decades.

  • Improvement in product quality is boosting dominance of local brands
  • In 2010, only 10% of smartphones sold in China were domestic brands; now it's close to 90%1
     

  • China plans to achieve carbon neutrality by 2060 (and peak CO2 before 2030)
  • China has been the largest investor in renewable energy over the last decade2

  • Healthcare: drug development is surging; China is the world's largest genetic databank3
  • Cryptocurrencies: watch out for the first truly digital currency in a major global economy
