Few countries have been able to match the pace of China’s sustained economic growth. With GDP increasing, on average, more than 8 percent annually since 1978, China has become a major player in the global economy.
To play Chinese growth investors should take a look at the exchange traded fund iShares FTSE/Xinhua China 25 Index (FXI). The ETF consists of 25 of the largest and most liquid Chinese companies.
FXI is well diversified – from holdings in Oil (PetroChina, Sinopec & CNOOC), Technology (China Mobile), Financial Institutions (China Life Insurance & CITI Pacific) & Construction (China Construction Bank). The top five companies represent 40% of the index.
