CSOP Licenses Internet Index for New ETF

"We chose MSCI as the index provider for this ETF as the new index delivers broad coverage of globally recognized Internet companies, which we believe play an important role on defining the future of the world economy," says Jack Wang, deputy chief marketing officer of CSOP Asset Management. "As a leading ETF provider we were also impressed with the high level of support from MSCI."

The custom Index tracks the 50 largest Internet software and retail forms listed on the US or Hong Kong exchanges, as calculated by MSCI.
