Chinese market 

China has an instrumental role in the world economy. The investment and financing needs are enormous. So far, the Chinese stock market remained relatively closed; offering foreign investors either reserved shares (B or H shares) or under very low quotas (A shares, 2%).[1] Since June 1st, MSCI has integrated more than 200 large-capitalisation A shares within its indices, the first step in a process to include 5% of the eligible A shares by September 2018. These A shares mainly concern sectors such as industry, new technologies and raw materials[2], and will allow greater diversification and integration of the Chinese domestic market, whilst improving their performance. And they are all, of course, issued in Yuan!
