TREE NEWS update: The Shanghai and Shenzhen stock exchanges published an expanded list for Southbound ETF Connect, adding 10 ETFs including the CSOP Nomura FTSE Hong Kong Japan Equity Cash Flow Focus Index ETF, the CSOP FTSE Asia Technology and Dividend Index ETF and the ChinaAMC Hong Kong-US AI ETF. The change takes effect on November 9, raising the total number of eligible products from 31 to 41 and further diversifying asset types covered.
Southbound ETF Connect expands with 10 new ETFs, effective Nov 9
The addition of Japan equity, Asia tech-dividend and Hong Kong-US AI products signals that Southbound ETF Connect is being used to widen mainland access beyond plain Hong Kong beta into regional and thematic exposures. The modest jump from 31 to 41 products matters less than the mix: income-focused and AI-themed strategies now sit alongside broader benchmarks. Whether this expansion draws meaningful southbound flows, or remains a shelf of listings without depth, is the open question to watch after the November 9 effective date.
