Shanghai Stock Exchange Hosts International Roadshow on China-Brazil ETF Connectivity

To deepen exchanges with Brazil's capital market, share the latest developments in China's economy and capital market, and encourage greater participation of Brazilian investors in China's capital market, the Shanghai Stock Exchange (SSE) and Brasil, Bolsa, Balcão (B3) jointly held an online international roadshow titled "Focus on SSE: China-Brazil ETF Connectivity Promotion Event" on the first anniversary of the launch of the China-Brazil ETF Connectivity. The event attracted over 40 Brazilian institutions, including asset management firms, financial intermediaries, pension funds, and banks.

As the second in the SSE's "Emerging Markets" online roadshow series, the roadshow aimed at attracting more Brazilian investors to invest in Chinese assets via the China-Brazil ETF Connectivity, showcasing China's economic growth potential and capital market investment opportunities. Launched in 2025 as the first ETF Connectivity scheme in South America, the initiative provides a convenient channel for investors in both countries to access high-quality assets in each other's markets. To date, three ETF products have been listed under the SSE-B3 ETF Connectivity scheme, all of which have been operating smoothly since listing.

During the event, the SSE presented the developments and growth potential of China's and SSE ETF market, including that of the SSE. As comprehensive investment and financing reforms in the capital market continue to deepen, the structure of the SSE's ETF market has steadily improved, and the long-term investment ecosystem is becoming more robust. At the same time, high-level institutional opening-up of the capital market is progressing steadily, with cross-border cooperation mechanisms such as ETF Connectivity and jointly-developed indices enabling a growing number of international investors to share in China's economic growth through ETF investments.

In the macroeconomic analysis and market outlook session, participating guests noted that the competitiveness of China's economy is accelerating, and the country has entered a new model of sustainable growth. Driven by strong supply-side advantages and continuously increasing investment in research and development, China's capital market offers extensive investment opportunities. The four asset management companies joining in the China-Brazil ETF Connectivity cooperation pointed out that the long-term investment value of Chinese assets lies mainly in the ongoing optimization of industrial structure, continued opening-up of the capital market, and the fact that Chinese assets' long-term valuations remain within a reasonable range. Chinese assets span diverse sectors such as technology, manufacturing, consumer goods, and healthcare, complementing Brazil's domestic market and enabling Brazilian investors to diversify risks across markets and industries. Brazilian investors' willingness to invest in Chinese assets is expected to rise continuously.

In recent years, the SSE has steadily advanced higher-standard two-way opening-up of the capital market, with ETF Connectivity mechanisms successfully extended to markets including Hong Kong SAR, Singapore, and Brazil, facilitating global investors' investment in Chinese assets. Moving forward, under the guidance of the China Securities Regulatory Commission, the SSE will explore cross-border cooperation with more overseas markets, continue to enrich cross-border investment products, facilitate medium- and long-term foreign investment in Chinese assets, and host a variety of themed events to help more international investors understand China, invest in China, and share in the high-quality development of China's capital market.
