JCHI

JCHI covers an array of investable Chinese shares, including administrative regions such as Hong Kong and Macau. The fund's adviser uses a bottom-up stock selection process that includes macro and policy consideration. The objective is to identify industry leaders through key opportunities and risk evaluation. As a result, the actively managed portfolio holds 40 to 70 stocks, with significant investments in foreign-denominated companies that rely on variable interest entity structures (VIE). Considerable autonomy in identifying, researching, and ranking securities is given to research analysts to foster creativity. Most assessments involve a two-part analysis: business growth and quality characteristics combined with expected five-year returns. An assessment of ESG impact is also considered. While the fund has an all-cap stock exposure, it also holds derivatives as a security substitute and foreign currencies, a portion of which is currency forwards hedged. The fund is non-diversified.
