Important Information
Investment involves risk. Past performance is not indicative of future performance. Investor should not make any investment decision solely based on the information provided on this material. Investors should refer to the ETF’s prospectus and product key facts statement for further details, including the product features and risk factors before making any investment decisions.
  • Bosera STAR 50 Index ETF (the “ETF”) aims to provide investment results that, before fees and expenses, closely correspond to the performance of the SSE Science and Technology Innovation Board 50 Index (the “Index”).
  • The ETF is an investment fund. There is no guarantee of the repayment of principal. Therefore your investment in the ETF may suffer losses. The ETF is a physical RQFII, RMB denominated exchange traded fund investing directly in A-shares.
  • The ETF is passively managed and the ETF will decrease in value for any decline in the Index. Bosera Asset Management (International) Co., Limited. (the “Manager”) will not adopt any temporary defensive position against any market downturn.
  • The Index is a new index. The Sub-Fund may be riskier than other exchange traded funds tracking more established indices with longer operating history.
  • The ETF is subject to concentration risk as a result of tracking the performance of a single geographical region (PRC) and companies focusing on technology innovation. It may likely be more volatile than a broad-based fund.
  • The Science and Technology Innovation Board of Shanghai Stock Exchange (the “STAR Board”) is subject to risks of higher fluctuation on stock prices and liquidity, over-valuation, differences in regulation, delisting and concentration. Investments in the STAR Board may result in significant losses for the ETF and its investors.
  • As the STAR Board may be open when Units in the ETF are not priced, the value of the securities in the ETF’s portfolio may change on days when investors will not be able to purchase or sell the ETF’s Units. Differences in trading hours between the STAR Board and the SEHK may increase the level of premium/ discount of the Unit price to its NAV because if the STAR Board is closed while the SEHK is open, the Index level may not be available. A-Shares are subject to trading bands which restrict increases and decreases in the trading price. Units listed on the SEHK are not. This difference may also increase the level of premium or discount of the Unit price to its NAV or the ETF may be unable to track the Index.
  • If there is a suspension of the inter-counter transfer of Units between the HKD counter and the RMB counter for any reason, Unitholders will only be able to trade their Units in the relevant counter on the SEHK. The market price on the SEHK of Units traded in HKD and of Units traded in RMB may deviate significantly due to different factors, such as market liquidity, supply and demand in each counter and the exchange rate between the RMB and the HKD (in both the onshore and the offshore markets).
  • The trading price of the Units on the SEHK is driven by market factors such as the demand and supply of the Units. The Units may trade at a substantial premium or discount to the NAV.

2.The Engine of China's Economic Growth

China has placed more emphasis on scientific research and development, and it has become the engine of economic growth in Mainland China. Despite the global pandemic, the weighted revenue and the profit growth of STAR 50 Index covering Chinese scientific research elite companies in 2020 is expected to grow by 54.6% and 51.6%,respectively.

Also, China’s total R&D expenditure in 2019 reached 2.17 trillion-yuan, accounting for 2.19% of the GDP, and ranked second in the world. In the same year, the average R&D expenditures of the STAR 50 Index accounted for 13% of the revenue, unlocking unlimited potential.

3.Comprehensive Coverage of China’s Hardcore Technology

The STAR 50 Index is a collection of national scientific research wisdom, covering hardcore technologies such as electronics, mechanical equipment, and computer industries. China’s semiconductor industry is striving for “chip autonomy” — to shoot up the chip self-sufficiency rate from 30% at present to 70% by 2025. It is likely that the Shanghai STAR Board would play an important role in China’s science and technology development. As it matures, more unicorns are likely to be attracted. Most of the companies on the STAR Board are in the growth stage of the business cycle. As more resources are mobilized in R&D, the growth potential is yet to be exploited.
