BEIJING — Global investors are turning cautious on investing in some Chinese companies named in a U.S. government executive order. MSCI, one of the largest stock index companies in the world, announced Tuesday that it would remove 10 Chinese securities from its indexes effective at the close of businesses on Jan. 5, 2021.

It’s market participants driving this. ... They’re doing this because the market is telling them they have to.” MSCI said in a release its decision was based on responses from more than 100 market participants worldwide, who noted the “extensive presence” of U.S.

  • FM First China Fund, LLC
    FM First China Fund, LLC JANUARY 2020 INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE FM First China Fund, LLC (the "Fund") invests in publicly-traded companies that either derive a majority of their revenues from, or maintain a majority of their assets in, mainland China. The investment objective of the Fund is to achieve long-term capital appreciation using a value-oriented approach modeled after the investment style of New York-based First Manhattan Co. The local team, with a deep network in China, seeks to apply a time-tested Western value approach to investing in what they view as an inefficient Eastern market. We manage a relatively concentrated portfolio where, based on the average of quarter end holdings since inception, the Fund’s top ten holdings have represented more than 60% of its assets under management.
