王雷（Rani Jarkas）：中国A股将被纳入MSCI新兴市场指数

摩根士丹利资本国际公司（MSCI Inc.）于本月20日宣布从2018年6月开始将中国A股纳入MSCI新兴市场和全球基准指数（ACWI）。

 

MSCI新兴市场指数是全球范围内最为广泛认可的新兴市场股票表现衡量工具。该指数跟踪记录了23个经济体的超过800只股票，其中超过70%都在亚洲。

大约17万亿美元的全球资产都以MSCI新兴市场指数为基准。A股被纳入指数后，海外投资者将会开始购买这些股票，这必然将会引领A股市场的强势上涨，上周一总部位于上海的澎湃新闻报道到。

全球精品投资公司赛德思投资在香港、上海、北京均设有办公室，董事长王雷（Rani Jarkas）表示：“MSCI决定将A股纳入指数表明中国经济正在稳步增长，并且潜力巨大。随着越来越多的国际资本流入，A股市场将不再由本土投资者控制，中国大陆股票市场的金融产品将会更丰富。”

Rani Jarkas: China A shares will be included in the MSCI Emerging Markets Index

MSCI Inc. (NYSE: MSCI) announced on June 20, 2017 that beginning in June 2018, it will include China A shares in the MSCI Emerging Market Index and the MSCI ACWI Index.

The MSCI Emerging Markets Index is one of the world's most widely recognized measurements for stock performance in emerging markets. The index tracks the performance of more than 800 stocks in 23 economies, more than 70 percent of which are in Asia.

About $1.7 trillion in global assets are benchmarked to the MSCI Emerging Markets Index, and overseas investors will start buying A shares when they are included in the index. That in turn would cause the A-share markets to see a further strong rise, Shanghai-based news website thepaper.cn reported on last Monday.

Rani Jarkas, Chairman of Cedrus Investments, a global boutique investment firm with offices in Hong Kong, Shanghai and Beijing, said, “MSCI’s decision to include A shares in its index shows that China's economy is growing stably, and has a lot of potential. As more international capital flows in, the A-share markets will no longer be dominated by local investors and financial products in mainland stock markets will become more diversified.”

Rani Jarkas: The Belt and Road Initiative: The Biggest Economic Cooperation Project Today

In mid-May, Chinese President Xi Jinping welcomed the world leaders attending the Belt and Road Forum (BRF) for International Cooperation in Beijing. The forum is a major boost and accelerator for synergies along the roads.

International Monetary Fund Managing Director Christine Lagarde commented on the BRF that “The Belt and Road Initiative is about connecting cultures, communities, economies, and people, and about adding new economic flavors by creating infrastructure projects that are based on 21st-century expertise and governance standards.”               

The Belt and Road Initiative is a pioneering, international framework based on an "open platform concept," which does not need a leader, but a curator who acts as a catalyst and coordinator for ensuring win-win outcomes, said Klaus Schwab, founder and executive chairman of the World Economic Forum.

Rani Jarkas, Chairman of Cedrus Investments, an experienced investor in the region under Belt and Road Initiative, said, “The Belt and Road Initiative is meant to help developing countries to create more opportunities for growth and improve the lives of people. The breadth of this initiative, the high level of participation and its strategic dimensions, highlight its capacity to become the biggest economic cooperation project in place in this century.”
