Allianz Global Investors U.S. LLC Launches Closed-End Equity Mutual Fund Focused on China In a bid to gain access to the rapidly growing Chinese market and diversify their portfolio, Allianz Global Investors U.S. LLC has launched The China Fund, Inc., a closed-ended equity mutual fund. The fund seeks to invest in public equity markets across China, including the People's Republic of China, Hong Kong, and Taiwan. Its strategy revolves around a combination of fundamental analysis and quantitative analysis, taking a bottom-up approach to creating its portfolio across diversified sectors. Investors can look forward to the fund's benchmarking of portfolio performance against the widely used MSCI Golden Dragon Index. The China Fund, Inc. dates back to April 28, 1992, and is domiciled in the United States. As the Chinese market continues to deliver impressive results, Allianz's move is timely, making The China Fund, Inc. an attractive investment option for market participants seeking additional exposure to the region.
