Title:
Jonathan Krane, CEO of KraneShares on China as an Asset Class, AI’s “ChatGPT Moment,” and What Advisors Are Missing

 

Description:
Are your clients under-allocated to the world’s second-largest economy? KraneShares CEO Jonathan Krane argues China is behaving like a distinct asset class—and many portfolios aren’t built for it.

 

What you’ll learn:

  • Why China’s share of EM could justify EM ex-China + China completion strategies
  • How A-shares, Hong Kong, and U.S. listings fit together in practical ETF allocations
  • Why 2025’s AI and clean-tech surge in China may mirror the U.S. “Magnificent 7” run
  • How sentiment, low local rates, high savings, and targeted policy shifts can fuel flows
  • A realistic path for U.S.–China engagement that balances competition and cooperation
  • Where advisors can find thematic exposure (EVs, batteries, energy storage, biotech, carbon)
