The Investor's Guide to China: Corporate governance (#3)

The Investor's Guide to China from Fidelity International takes you deep into the workings of the Chinese economy and its financial markets. Paras Anand, Chief Investment Officer for Asia Pacific, brings you a cast of investment experts working in the world's second largest economy. Hear how they're uncovering this rapidly developing market and avoiding its pitfalls. Episode 3: Corporate governance. Trust in Chinese companies has always been a challenge for investors. As more of them list on global indices, management, disclosure, regulatory alignment, and state involvement are all coming into greater focus. The corporate landscape in China is maturing, and levels of transparency and accountability are improving. But investors are still working out how far corporate governance has come in the country and to what extent the trust gap is closing. Joining Paras for this episode are Anthony Bolton, former portfolio manager and now special adviser at Fidelity, and Shanghai-based portfolio managers Lynda Zhou on the equity side and Alvin Cheng for credit. We also hear from analyst Monica Li about her on-the-ground research into China's booming healthcare sector, and from Fidelity's Head of Sustainability, Jenn-Hui Tann, about the emergence of dual-class share listings on China's stock markets.
