Invest in China
with Allianz Global Investors
Our strategies
China may still be an unfamiliar market to many and yet as a growing opportunity is one that investors cannot ignore. Allocations to China have been steadily increasing in major benchmarks over recent years reflecting just how important China is to the global economy.
Our research has shown that even a small allocation to Chinese stocks or bonds may be able to help improve the risk/return profiles of investors' portfolios. Choosing the right partner though is critical to navigating China's markets successfully.
At Allianz Global Investors, we offer a range of strategies to help you achieve your investment goals.

Allianz China A-Shares Equity Fund
Allianz China A-Shares Equity Fund invests purely into China A-shares (no offshore exposure).

This Fund offers investors the opportunity to exclusively access the growing China A-Shares market in a UK domestic fund.
Why invest?
-
China A-shares: too big an opportunity to ignore
The China equity market is the second largest in the world. China A-shares account for approximately 70 %1 of all China stocks and are an opportunity for foreign Investors who want to tap into China’s long-term growth potential. -
Diversification benefits
A-shares build a real picture of the economy, significantly broader and more diversified than that of Hong Kong-listed stocks. China A-shares can be a valuable addition to an investor’s portfolio, offering potential diversification benefits through the market’s low correlation to other major equity markets. -
Active management and local expertise
The China A-shares market is dominated by retail investors and is correspondingly inefficient. Active management is required to avoid overly-risky stocks and exploit opportunities. Allianz Global Investors has deep local expertise coupled with a bottom-up fundamental approach and our unique, ‘boots on the ground’ Grassroots Research®.2 -
Amongst the first of its kind
The Fund is one of the first UK OEIC vehicles offering access to the China A-Shares market.
