Lion-OCBC Securities China Leaders ETF (SGX:YYY) - Balanced Exposure to Chinese Equities
Chinese stocks have really taken a beating recently. Sentiment is extremely negative in light of a regulatory crackdown by the Chinese authorities. 

For long-term investors however, this presents a pretty interesting buying opportunity. 

Instead of buying individual Chinese stocks, investors could also consider China ETFs as a way to diversify and reduce risk. 

In this video, I’ll give a brief overview of the best China ETFs available and share my thoughts on them. 

ETFs covered:
- iShares MSCI China ETF (MCHI)
- SPDR S&P China ETF (GXC)
- iShares China Large-Cap ETF (FXI)
- Xtrackers Harvest CSI 300 China A-Shares ETF (ASHR)
- KraneShares CSI China Internet ETF (KWEB)
- Invesco China Technology ETF (CQQQ)
- Lion-OCBC Securities Hang Seng Tech ETF (SGX:HST)
