PRINCIPLES
WHAT STRATEGIES WE ARE USING?
INVESTMENT STRATEGIES
Our development objective is to become a stable, professional, responsible and prestigious international institutional investor and our investment activities adhere to the following basic principles:
The investment activity is based on a business purpose and the investment objective is to maximize shareholders' equity within an acceptable risk range.
As a financial investor, do not seek control over the investee business.
As an institutional investor, we strictly abide by the relevant laws and regulations of our country and the recipient country or region, and actively fulfil our corporate social responsibility.
Investment activities are driven by research and asset allocation, aiming to make investment decisions prudently and carry out investment activities in a rigorous and regulated manner.
INVESTMENT PHILOSOPHY
We plan investment strategies from the perspective of the past portfolios, carry out asset allocation and portfolio analysis and conduct portfolio management to ensure the integrity, discipline and stability of the future portfolio.
We take advantage of long-term investment to have a strong ability to bear risks of short-term market fluctuations and obtain an illiquidity premium.
We reduce portfolio volatility and control the downside risk of portfolios by diversifying investment among various risk factors.
INVESTMENT DECISION
We have established a scientific, rigorous and effective investment decision-making system for overseas investment. Investment decision-making at all levels have an orderly division of labour and are organically connected. The foundation is laid for effective investment.
At present, we set up an Asset Allocation and Investment Policy Committee, as well as a Public Market Investment Decision-Making Committee, a Non-Public Market Investment Decision-Making Committee and an Asset Allocation Dynamic Adjustment Committee. The aforementioned committees implement different levels and categories of investment decisions. In order to further improve the efficiency and quality of investment decision-making and clarify the relationship between rights and responsibilities in investment management, we also promulgated the corresponding investment decision-making management system and authorization scheme.
The Asset Allocation and Investment Policy Committee, the Open Market Investment Decision Committee, the Private Market Investment Decision Committee and the Asset Allocation Dynamic Adjustment Decision Committee formulate investment strategies and policies, performance and risk objectives in accordance with the guidelines determined by the Board of Directors and the Executive Committee. We correspondingly revise or formulate our own investment management systems and procedures; hold regular (or ad hoc) meetings to review investment proposals and make investment decisions independently.
