Interested in adding Chinese shares to your portfolio? Chinese growth stocks are plentiful and easily accessed from a domestic brokerage account. But the future of these stocks on US exchanges remains uncertain \u2014 especially for state-owned enterprises.<\/p>
Chinese stocks originate from companies that are headquartered in China. Like the US, there are multiple Chinese stock exchanges \u2014 including the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, the Shanghai Stock Exchange and the Shenzhen Stock Exchange.<\/p>
There are a few ways for Canadian investors to add Chinese stocks to their portfolios, including stocks and exchange-traded funds (ETFs).<\/p>
With an international brokerage account, you can purchase Chinese stocks directly from Chinese exchanges. Not many Canadian brokers offer international trading, but one broker that offers access to Asian markets is Interactive Brokers<\/a>.<\/p> For investors who aren\u2019t ready for an international brokerage account, some Chinese companies list on the TSX and many list on the NYSE and Nasdaq. This is good news for investors in Canada, where a number of brokers offer access to both US and Canadian stock exchanges including Questrade<\/a>, Scotia iTRADE<\/a>, Wealthsimple<\/a> and Qtrade Direct Investing<\/a>.<\/p> ETFs that track Chinese stocks are another way for Canadian investors to diversify their portfolios with a variety of China-based investments.\n \n\n
