China Research Solutions

Overview

China research support services

As the world's second-largest economy, China continues to be an attractive market for institutional investors due to its sheer size, impressive growth and the diversification opportunities it presents. China is also increasingly opening up its financial markets to foreign investors with programs like stock and bond connects. China's advancement in technology and innovation, particularly in artificial intelligence, e-commerce and fintech and artificial intelligence, presents high-growth potential to investors looking for better returns.

Along with the positives, the China market poses unique challenges that international firms find difficult to navigate. At Acuity’s Beijing office, we combine our in-depth capital markets expertise with our strong research domain to present integrated solutions related to equity and fixed income research on the China market.

Our clients benefit from our China research analysts’ presence on the ground and language capabilities. We perform a number of research tasks for our global clients, such as local news analysis, creating and updating financial models, attending conferences held in Mandarin, sourcing useful data from Chinese databases such as WIND, translating policy documents, writing reports, conducting channel checks and reaching out to management teams of Chinese companies.
