The CSOP CSAM CSI A500 Index ETF has launched on the SGX stock exchange under the Shenzhen Stock Exchange ( SZSE )–SGX ETF Link, offering investors a convenient and efficient channel to access China’s A share market through a broad-based benchmark.

The exchange-traded fund ( ETF ) tracks the CSI A500Index, which comprises 500 of China’s largest and most liquid companies – a wider and more balanced range of sectors than the CSI 300 Index.

The fund, with more than 50% of its weight allocated to innovation driven sectors, such as technology hardware and advanced manufacturing, provides diversified exposure to industry leaders and China’s key structural growth drivers.

Managed by CSOP Asset Management ( CSOP ), the ETF underscores the deepening collaboration between Singapore and China’s capital markets. This listing marks the 11th ETF under the China–Singapore ETF Link and the sixth under the SZSE–SGX ETF Link, reinforcing SGX’s commitment “to expanding cross border connectivity and providing investors with seamless access to China’s growth”.

The CSOP CSAM CSI A500 Index ETF complements the suite of Asia-focused ETFs listed on SGX and expands the product shelf to 51 ETFs, with combined assets under management ( AUM ) exceeding S$18 billion. SGX’s ETF performance continues to gain strong momentum, with total AUM in 2025 rising 37% year-on-year and average daily turnover surging 69% compared with the previous year.

“This ETF provides broad-based exposure to companies at the core of China’s equity market,” says Ng Yao Loong, SGX’s head of equities, “and reflects our continuing commitment to growing bilateral capital flows between China and Singapore.”

Zhou Yi, China Southern Asset Management ( CSAM )’s and CSOP’s chairman, adds: “The successful listing of this ETF not only enriches Singapore’s ETF market, but also helps meet investors’ demand for broad-based A-share index exposure.”
