We are aiming to build a diversified financial services company in China with a strong footprint in pensions and asset management.

Approval to establish a mutual fund company in China

In August 2021, we obtained initial approval from the Chinese regulator to establish a wholly-owned mutual fund company in China. With this “first approval”, we are officially one step closer to getting the final approval to commence our mutual fund business in this strategic market.

This is a key milestone and highlights our commitment to doing business in China. The strong foundations we have built in China - we established our offices in Shanghai and Dalian in 2004 and 2007 respectively - put us in a great position to succeed in this important market.
