UOB Asset Management Malaysia ( UOBAM Malaysia ) has launched the United Intelligence Series – Greater China Fund ( UIS-GCF ), whose strategy invests a minimum 90% of its net asset value into a target fund, the United Greater China Fund, managed by UOB Asset Management ( UOBAM ) in Singapore.

The target fund aims to provide retail investors with long-term capital appreciation primarily through investment in companies with assets or revenues across the consumer discretionary, financial and information technology sectors.  

In a more complex and evolving market environment, China remains focused on longer-term priorities, such as domestic consumption, technology development and its transition towards carbon neutrality by 2060.

Hong Kong continues to serve as a key financial gateway, while Taiwan’s leadership in advanced semiconductor manufacturing supports opportunities linked to artificial intelligence ( AI ) and digitalization.

Together, these dynamics underpin selective exposure across the consumer discretionary, financial and information technology sectors.

In response to the differentiated dynamics across Greater China, UOBAM leverages its AI augmentation to enhance data analysis and risk assessment supporting active asset allocation and broaden market coverage, which enables portfolio managers to build risk-optimized portfolios complemented by fundamental security selection by experienced analysts.

The fund, anchored by a disciplined investment process, offers investors a considered way to capture Greater China’s growth and future potential, while remaining aligned with long-term investment goals.

The fund is offered in US dollar ( USD ) as its base currency and is available in three classes namely, USD Acc Class, Ringgit ( RM ) Hedged Acc Class and Renminbi ( RMB ) Hedged Acc Class. The minimum investment amount is US$1,000 for the USD Acc class, 1,000 ringgit for the RM Hedged Acc class and 1,000 yuan for the RMB Hedged Acc class. 

“The target fund focuses on the Greater China region comprised of mainland China, Hong Kong and Taiwan,” says Lim Suet Ling, UOBAM Malaysia’s CEO. “It’s a market at the crossroads of innovation, consumption and global connectivity, creating a range of equity opportunities for retail investors.”
