TREE NEWS reports: Thirteen of 16 new funds listed on the Hong Kong stock market between Sept 28 and Sept 30 were 60/40 structure ETFs. Industry participants say institutions are actively positioning in these ETFs because they qualify for inclusion in ETF Connect, which would draw more capital into Hong Kong’s ETF market once access is granted.
Hong Kong Market Sees 13 New 60/40 Structure ETFs in Three Trading Days
The concentration of new listings around a single structure suggests Hong Kong's ETF pipeline is being shaped less by retail demand than by the prospect of ETF Connect eligibility, with institutions positioning ahead of a channel that does not yet exist. That makes the current flow a bet on future access rather than present liquidity, and it leaves the market's near-term depth untested. Whether issuance stays this lopsided once Connect inclusion is actually granted — and whether the underlying assets can absorb the capital such access implies — is the open question.
