M&G Collaborates With China’s Largest Brokerage
London-headquartered asset manager M&G has formed a strategic collaboration with China’s largest brokerage house.
M&G Investments has signed a Strategic Cooperation Memorandum of Understanding with Guotai Haitong Securities, according to a statement.
The collaboration will focus on the sharing of information, asset management development, client engagement and investment market promotion. It will also form a foundation for future collaboration in investment research, product innovation and global distribution.
Co-Branded Fixed Income Solution
The two firms are currently developing a co-branded Asia-focused fixed income solution with the aim of launching in the coming months. Other initiatives under consideration include products eligible for Qualified Domestic Institutional Investor – a mainland China scheme that allows local investors to access foreign markets – as well as investment advisory and distribution arrangements.
«This collaboration reflects our shared commitment to delivering high-quality investment solutions and expanding global market access for Chinese investors,» commented M&G CEO Joseph Pinto. «As the largest securities firm in China, Guotai Haitong Securities plays a pivotal role in Shanghai’s capital markets development and maintains a strong presence in Hong Kong – making it a valued partner in improving international connections.»
Guotai Haitong Securities was formed in a merger announced in late 2024 between Guotai Junan Securities and Haitong Securities.
