China Securities Index Co., Ltd. (CSI)'s recent use of securities market information of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange to develop and calculate CSI HK Index, under the authorization of HKEx Information Services Limited, means that the CSI Indices System will expand to the Hong Kong market from the mainland market. As the core index of the system, CSI HK 100 index will be the first to be launched soon.
With the development of the capital market, the mainland and Hong Kong markets have established an increasingly close relationship. After implementation of the QDII system, the Hong Kong market has been the oversea market attracting the eyeballs of mainland investors, as well as the major investment objects of institutional investors such as QDII and the like. To better serve investors at home and aboard and improve the CSI's influence and competitiveness on the international market, the CSI is making great efforts to introduce the index service to the Hong Kong market. The upcoming CSI HK 100 Index is composed of the 100 most representative stocks on the Hong Kong market, with the aim of developing the index as an accurate pointer for understanding the Hong Kong market, an effective tool for analyzing and evaluating the Hong Kong market, and a good target for tracing the investment on the Hong Kong market. It is known that some domestic and oversea institutions have developed and prepared for introducing relevant investment products of the CSI HK 100 Index.
As a joint professional index provider established by the Shanghai Stock Exchange (SSE) and the Shenzhen Stock Exchange (SZSE), the CSI, supported by the information and technology resources advantages of the SSE and the SZSE, have successively compiled and published, since the CSI foundation on September 2005, the CSI scale indices series composed of 6 indices, such as the SHSE-SZSE300 Index, CSI100 Index and CSI500 Index; the industry indices series composed of 10 indices, such as the CSI 300 Energy index and the CSI 300 Financials index; as well as the CSI style indices series composed of 4 indices, such as the CSI 300 Growth Index and the CSI 300 Value Index. A preliminary A Share indices system has been established now. In addition, the CSI, at the beginning of 2008, published the bonds indices series composed of 8 indices like the CSI Aggregate Bond Index, as well as the fund indices series composed of 4 indices such as the CSI Open-end Fund Index. Now as many as 34 indices are included in the CSI indices system. The compilation and publication of the CSI HK Index is a great leap in the CSI business development. With the globalization of the investors' investment needs, the CSI's product service will further develop to the overseas and other markets.
