Receiving these honors adds to our conviction about the benefits of thematic investments and will drive us to launch further innovative products that capture emerging trends and offer long term investment opportunities to investors."

Having been named as a key sector for development amid favorable changes in China's regulatory environment,Global X China Biotech ETF seeks to capture the vast opportunities presented by Chinese biotechnology companies,which are being bolstered by the 'Made in China 2025' industrial strategy. With aging populations and citizens are more aware of healthier lifestyle,biotech in China is ripe for development,giving investors in this fund an opportunity to ride the coattails of megatrends that are driving the sector.

Global X China Cloud Computing ETF meanwhile looks to ride the fast-growing wave of China's nascent cloud computing market. The COVID-19 outbreak at the beginning of this year has no doubt accelerated the digital transformation as people were forced to work from home and switched to remote office as well as online shopping and entertainment,boosting huge demand for cloud services. With the Chinese government identifying cloud technology as a strategic priority for development,the ETF looks to give investors exposure to the significant promotion and subsidization of the cloud technology sector.

The innovation and success of these funds follows the launch of the 'Global X by Mirae Asset' ETF series,which was the result of Mirae Asset's acquisition of Global X in 2018. In addition to the aforementioned ETFs,the brand also launched the Global X China Consumer Brand ETF,Global X China Electric Vehicle ETF and Global X China Clean Energy ETF in January 2020 in Hong Kong,which provide investors exposure to these high-growth themes for long term investment. The combined AUM of the 5 China thematic ETF range is nearly US$800 million*.
