The fund will be managed the company’s veteran China fund manager Edmund Harriss, who also managed the Guinness Atkinson China & Hong Kong Fund (ICHKX) since 1998.
Guinness Atkinson Asset Management CEO Jim Atkinson said as China begins to promote an internationally tradable currency, this fund should appeal to emerging market bond fund investors looking to diversify their currency exposure while seeking a way to participate in China’s bond market.
The fund evaluates global macroeconomic conditions with in-house credit analysis based on study of company fundamentals as part of its investment strategy, while it will employ proprietary modelling screens to support the portfolio management team’s credit analysis.
The mutual fund investment strategy provides the portfolio management team with a high level of flexibility in executing buy and sell decisions in changing market conditions.
