China Focused Funds in India

China Focused Funds in India


Investors should book partial profits, but also remember that China will continue to be a growth hub.
 
If the massive run up in the Chinese market over the past year and the correction of re cent days has got you worried, then you should review your investment in China-focused funds. Experts suggest booking partial profits in them.

The key risk in the Chinese market has arisen from the Shanghai Composite Index's steep run up over the past 12 months. At its peak on 12 June, it was up 151.81% over its year-ago level. Any market that moves up so fast poses a risk. Now it is correcting and is down -24.26% from its 52-week peak.

Several factors fuelled the rally.One, the MSCI announced in early June that it might include Chinese A shares (Shanghai or Shenzen listed shares available for investment only to local investors and by quota to FIIs) in its Emerging Market and Asia Pacific ex-Japan indices.Since this would force internation al ETFs and active funds with exposure to China to invest in these shares, local investors piled into them in anticipation of gains. Second, margin lending provided the liquidity for speculative activity.Third, with real estate and gold not performing and deposit rates down due to the central bank's rate cuts, Chinese investors had no option but to invest in equities. Now the market is correcting owing to its own steep valuation and due to the Greek crisis. The China Securities Regulatory Commission's crackdown on shadow market financing schemes has led to money moving out of equities.

There are four China-focused funds--two from Mirae, one from JPMorgan and an ETF from Goldman Sachs--with a total AUM of `5,247 crore, so the impact of a possible meltdown in the Chinese market on Indian investors will not be massive. Moreover, the steep run up has happened in Chinese A shares while Indian funds invest in Chinese H shares. The latter are shares of companies domiciled in China but listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange which foreign investors can invest in freely. H shares have not run up as steeply, nor turned as expensive as A shares. We don't share the concern about China A shares because we don't own them .

Among China-focused funds, those that are more diversified will suffer less than those that are completely focused on China. Some of the China-focused funds have a fund-of-fund structure where the mother fund is dollar denominated. The dollar's strength will cushion the loss these funds suffer in the Chinese market. Finally, if the run up in the Chinese market has caused the weight of these funds to increase, book profits.

The fund sticks to its mandate to adapt to the dynamic nature of the market by shuttling between debt and equity. It takes aggressive asset calls in equity when the market surges by investing in quality mid-cap stocks. At the same time, it adopts a defensive strategy by investing in debt and cash when markets get overvalued, making it a good long-term choice.     For further information contact Prajna Capital on 94 8300 8300 by leaving a missed call     Leave a missed Call on 94 8300 8300   Leave your comment with mail ID and we will ...

Financial Planner - Do Integrity & Dependability Check

How does one can find value proposition when it comes to financial planning, which is a new area? There is nothing to benchmark it with. So, how does one figure what is the right fee to pay? Look at what you want. You probably want to hire a financial planner to get a blueprint for your life ahead and want to know how to achieve your goals. For creating a tailor-made financial plan, our experience is that it takes 25-30 man-hours in all. Taking an average of Rs 500 per hour for hiring the services of a qualified financial planner like one who has a CFP(CM) certificate, the fee would come to Rs 12,500 to Rs 15,000. But the per-hour rate can be higher or lower depending on the process adopted, the experience and expertise of the planner, etc. That's how planners arrive at their fee. Now, is that value for money? For that you need to find out what benefits you would derive by engaging them. The financial plan will give you clarity, direction and pathway to achieve your goals. Th...

About CRISIL IPO Grading

CRISIL IPO (Initial Public Offering) Grading is an opinion on the fundamentals of the graded issue that reflects CRISIL's independence and expertise. This opinion is expressed as a relative assessment in relation to other listed equity securities in India. The assessment is based on a grading exercise carried out by industry specialists from CRISIL Research. A CRISIL IPO Grade 5/5 indicates strong fundamentals and a CRISIL IPO Grade 1/5 indicates poor fundamentals. CRISIL IPO Grading reflects its assessment of the graded company's equity fundamentals as distinct from an assessment of debt fundamentals. A CRISIL IPO Grade should not be construed to mean a comment on the price of the graded security nor is it a recommendation to invest or not to invest in the graded security. However, this grade is not an opinion on whether the issue price is appropriate in relation to the issue fundamentals. The grade is not a recommendation to buy / sell or hold the graded instrument, or a comm...

Understanding Your Cibil Credit Information Report

   WE ARE all familiar with the anxiety and uncertainty that we feel when applying for a loan. After all, it's the lender who decides whether we can own our dream home, our first car, or whether our children can pursue higher education. In a nutshell, a better life depends on the lender's decisions.    While other factors do play a part in the lender's decision, the Cibil Credit Information Report ( CIR ) plays a crucial role in a lender's decision to approve a loan application.    Previously, lenders would treat all loan seekers equally. Each applicant, if approved by the lender's internal credit policy, would be charged at the same interest rate for a particular loan size and purpose. The lenders would charge a higher interest rate to all the borrowers, in order to compensate for the possible default of a small portion of the loan disbursed. In other words, it's like a professor (the lender) punishing an entire class (borrowers) for the mischief played b...
