China – the investment opportunity
Already the world’s second-largest economy, China is set to become the biggest global economy by 2030. Reforms are shifting its focus to high-value sectors such as robotics, biotech and tourism.
Given the scale of the opportunity, we think investors’ current allocations to China underrepresent the potential rewards – and we expect investors to increase their exposure steadily.
As more investors look to China, “buying the index” may not provide the right kind of access, since China is widely underrepresented in benchmark indices. An active, selective approach may provide better exposure.
China’s markets have been volatile, though their institutionalisation and transparency are improving. Yet it’s still an unfamiliar market, emphasising the need to invest with conviction – and the right partner.
