  • What Is a Land Rich Company?
    No provision for capital gains tax (CGT) will be derived from the trading of A-shares, bar those derived from the trading of PRC resident enterprises defined as “Land Rich Companies”. Further, Z-Ben Advisors believe that this LRC provision extends to HK-domiciled RQFII funds only. The European outlook suggests that no withholding provision will be made as stated by Source/CSOP in their CSOP Source FTSE China A50 UCITS ETF prospectus, we expect Deutsche Bank/Harvest to follow suit with their db x-trackers Harvest CSI300 Index UCITS ETF . Below is Z-Ben Advisors’ LRC breakdown of what we understand constitutes a Land Rich Company and what proportion these contribute to the CSI 300 and FTSE China A50 indices.
