List of ETFs Focusing on China Listed on U.S. Exchanges

China has a larger selection of ETFs listed on U.S. exchanges than any other country…and by a wide margin. Here are a few notes regarding these Chinese ETFs:

• There are quite a few ETFs focusing on China A-shares which are companies that trade on the Shanghai and Shenzhen stock exchanges. When the ETF has A-shares, it is often included in the name of the ETF as it is quite a selling point since foreign investors cannot directly purchase these shares.
• It is very common for many of the broad-based ETFs to be weighted towards the financial sector. This is particularly true for large-cap focused ETFs as many of the largest Chinese companies are within this sector.
• We are starting to see a broad representation of sector ETFs focusing on China. In recent years, industry focused ETFs such as the KraneShares CSI China Internet ETF (KCNY), which is comprised of Chinese internet companies, have started to be created. This is a trend that will likely continue in the future.
• The small-cap ETFs include between 100 and 500 small-sized companies depending on the ETF.
• With regards to short and leveraged ETFs, all of the major daily target levels are represented: -1x, -2x, -3x, 2x and 3x.
• If the largest selection of individual country ETFs wasn’t enough, there are also several ETFs weighted towards China that you can find at the bottom of this list. Most of these ETFs are emerging market or regional Asian ETFs.
