Daniel Renin ShanghaiPublished: 10:00am, 28 May 2026Global investors’ appetite for Chinese equities, companies and assets continues to rise owing to rapid technological advancements and low valuations in the world’s second-largest economy, according to JPMorgan Chase.

Kwang Kam Shing, chairwoman for North Asia at the biggest US bank, said that foreign investment in Hong Kong and mainland China remained at a low level historically, and investors were keen to explore fresh opportunities.

“They still believe there’s a big or relatively big gap between the markets,” she said. “The valuation here is considered attractive, compared with the counterparts elsewhere.”

The poll was conducted during JPMorgan’s Global China Summit in Shanghai last week, which drew more than 2,900 executives, regulatory officials and institutional funds from over 30 countries and markets.
