    Markets and Securities Services | China’s 2020 vision for global fund managers 1 CHINA’S 2020 VISION FOR GLOBAL FUND MANAGERS Around 25 years ago, the authorities in China began to develop their capital markets ambitions. Stock exchanges were opened in Shanghai and Shenzhen. Members of the general public were allowed to buy stocks and shares on the market, albeit their choices at the time were limited to mainly (former) State-Owned Enterprises (SOEs).

  • China's Asset Management Companies As State Spatial
    This is the version of the article accepted for publication in China Quarterly published by Cambridge University Press: DOI: https://doi.org/10.1017/S0305741019000018 Accepted version downloaded from SOAS Research Online: http://eprints.soas.ac.uk/25921 China’s Asset Management Companies as State Spatial–Temporal Strategy Sarah Ho1 2 Thomas Marois Abstract Chinese authorities created four new asset management companies (AMCs) in 1999, which have since undergone profound transformations that have been influential in China’s contemporary integration into the world market. Conventional interpretations see these powerful AMCs in largely technical and asocial terms. By contrast, we employ a critical geographical analytical framework to understand the transformation of the AMCs as an expression of state spatial–temporal strategy, which involved attempts to create conditions of political economic stability now by displacing the conditions of financial instability and crisis into the future. This strategy does not come without unintended and destabilizing consequences, nor is it without class-based social and political implications. 中国政府在 1999 年设立了四家资产管理公司,它们经历了重大变化,并对中国近年融入国际 市场的过程影响深重。对这些庞大的资产管理公司的解读,一般都从技术性及非社会性的层面 出发。相比之下,我们利用批判性的地理分析框架,把资产管理公司经历的变革理解为国家时 空管理策略的表现。该策略企图把现存的金融不稳定及危机推延至未来,以制造现时的政治经 济稳定。这策略的执行不仅藏有未遇见和不稳定的后果,亦为社会和政治上的阶级斗争带来启 示。 Keywords China, Finance, Asset Management Company, Political Economy, Spatial Strategy, Development, Transformation, Institutions 中国,金融,资产管理公司,政治经济,空间策略,发展,转型,机构 Sarah Ho is a qualified solicitor in Hong Kong and has completed her MSc Development Studies at SOAS University of London. Thomas Marois is a Senior Lecturer of Development Studies, SOAS University of London. He is author of the 2012 book, States, Banks and Crisis: Emerging Finance Capitalism in Mexico and Turkey (Edward Elgar). 1 The financial transformations experienced by the big emerging capitalisms like Brazil, Mexico, Turkey, India, South Africa, and China have been subject to increased study in their own right.

The situation across much of Asia has continued to disrupt normal working patterns with most employees working remotely, amplifying the challenges of running a multi-faceted, international business. Despite these challenges, hiring activity has continued across a variety of functions indicating a willingness amongst managers to push through critical hires. Interestingly, hiring levels were slightly elevated against Q3 2019, although this is likely down to the lack of the summer ‘lull’ when decision makers typically take annual leave. NEWS ▪ UOB Asset Management has partnered with FNZ Group to launch a robo- advisory mobile app for retail investors in Singapore. In similar news, Franklin Templeton in Singapore has partnered with Razer Fintech to roll out a digital wealth management platform to target millennials in Southeast Asia. ◼ Affin Hwang Asset Management has teamed up with Versa Asia Kuala, a Kuala Lumpur-based fintech firm, to launch a digital cash management platform via a mobile app. ▪ AIA Thailand has received licences for private fund management and mutual fund management from Thailand’s regulator for its newly formed investment management subsidiary, AIA Investment Management Thailand. ▪ CCB Principal Asset Management in Hong Kong has been awarded licenses for asset management (Type9) and advising on securities (Type4).
