China's equity market, the second largest globally, presents an unparalleled growth story backed by its powerful economy and growing middle class,” said Jonathan Krane, CEO and Founder of KraneShares. “CHIN enables investors to leverage the strengths of the top 500 Chinese companies while also potentially benefiting from sector diversity* and liquidity."

“We are excited to deepen our relationship with ICBCCS and bring this exceptional product to investors across Europe,” said Dr. Xiaolin Chen, Head of International at KraneShares. “We strive to offer investors the best solutions for accessing China’s capital markets and CHIN is a welcome addition to our growing suite of UCITS products.”

One of KraneShares’ core beliefs is that investors should have a China exposure that is balanced between Mainland and overseas listings. The launch of the KraneShares ICBCCS S&P China 500 Index UCITS ETF (Ticker: CHIN) brings this core investment philosophy to UCITS investors.
