【英语财经】中国首家基金公司获得海外投资额度 Chinese fund looks to invest overseas

A Chinese fund management company co-owned by JPMorgan Chase has received a licence to raise $100m in China to invest in an overseas hedge fund, official media reported on Wednesday.

China International Fund Management, in which JPMorgan owns a 49 per cent stake, is the first domestic mutual fund company to obtain a licence through China's Qualified Domestic Limited Partner (QDLP) programme.

Launched in 2013, the scheme grants foreign-exchange quotas that allow alternative asset managers to raise renminbi from onshore Chinese funds to invest overseas. Shanghai International Trust Co owns the remaining 51 per cent in CIFM.

Until now, QDLP licenses have been limited to asset managers incorporated outside China, including Citadel, Man Group, Winton, Oak Tree, Och-Ziff and Canyon Capital.

Reuters reported earlier this year that overseas mutual fund companies including UBS Global Asset Management, Deutsche Asset & Wealth Management and Nomura Asset Management also received $100m QDLP quotas.

官方媒体周三报道，由摩根大通(JPMorgan Chase)和上海国际信托有限公司(Shanghai International Trust Co)共同所有的一家中国基金管理公司最近获得批准，将把在中国筹集的1亿美元资金投资于一家海外对冲基金。

中国国际基金有限公司(China International Fund Management)成为首家获得合格境内有限合伙人(QDLP)资格的国内共同基金公司。摩根大通持有该公司49%股权。

QDLP机制于2013年推出，向另类资产管理公司提供外汇额度，允许其从中国境内基金筹集人民币资金投资于海外。上海国际信托有限公司持有中国国际基金有限公司剩余的51%股权。

在此之前，QDLP牌照一直限于在中国境外组建的资产管理公司，包括Citadel、英仕曼(Man Group), 元盛(Winton), 橡树资本(Oak Tree), Och-Ziff和峡谷资本(Canyon Capital)。

今年早些时候，路透(Reuters)报道称，包括瑞银全球资产管理公司(UBS Global Asset Management)、德意志资产和财富管理公司(Deutsche Asset & Wealth Management)以及野村资产管理公司(Nomura Asset Management)在内的海外共同基金管理公司获得了1亿美元额度的QDLP牌照。
