TREE NEWS update: Ben Squires, chief investment officer of Australia’s Engis Super, said on November 12 at the Shanghai Stock Exchange International Investor Conference that China’s economy is highly resilient and he sees investment opportunities in Chinese assets. He disclosed that Engis Super began investing in China 16 years ago, initially focusing on venture capital, and was an early investor in the Xiaomi ecosystem.
Australia’s Engis Super CIO Bullish on Chinese Assets at SSE Investor Conference
The significance here is less the bullish call itself than the source: a long-tenured Australian pension investor that entered China through venture capital and the Xiaomi ecosystem, not index exposure, publicly endorsing Chinese assets at an SSE-hosted forum. That framing suggests institutional conviction built on private-market history rather than macro momentum, and it lands as Beijing works to court foreign long-term capital. What's worth watching is whether this stays a single CIO's view or signals broader Australian super-fund re-engagement, and whether VC-style entry points remain the preferred route over public equities.
