SINGAPORE, Jan. 20, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Singapore's first CSI A500 Index ETF—CSOP CSAM CSI A500 Index ETF (Stock Code: SUN), lists on Singapore Exchange (SGX) today (January 20, 2026). SUN's listing price is SGD 1 per share, with a trading lot size of 1 share and an annual management fee of 0.89%.
The listing of CSOP CSAM CSI A500 Index ETF on SGX reflects the continued opening of China's financial markets and marks another milestone in the internationalization of Chinese assets. SUN is a feeder ETF (the sub-fund). To achieve its investment objective, it will invest at least 90% of its net assets in the China Southern CSI A500 ETF (the underlying fund), directly and/or indirectly via the QFI status granted to CSOP Asset Management Pte. Ltd.(Singapore) (fund manager) and/or any other permissible methods under prevailing laws and regulations. The underlying fund listed in 2024 and, as of January 8, 2026, has RMB 47.1 billion in assets under management, ranking second globally[1]. It is the largest among peer products on Shenzhen Stock Exchange, with low tracking error, precise index replication, and scale advantages. Singapore investors can conveniently trade this ETF on the secondary market in SGD, with a minimum investment of just SGD 1, providing efficient access to the long-term growth potential of China's core assets.
The CSI A500 Index (the Index) selects 500 A-share securities with relatively large market capitalizations and strong liquidity from across industries as its constituents, aiming to reflect the overall performance of the most representative listed companies in each sector. From an industry allocation perspective, the CSI A500 Index has higher weights in Industrials, Information Technology, Materials, Financials, and Communication Services, which may enhance its potential to deliver relative excess returns. In 2025, CSI A500 Index achieved a return of 22.43%[2].
Mr. Zhou Yi, Chairman of China Southern Asset Management Co., Ltd. (CSAM) and Chairman of CSOP Asset Management Limited (CSOP), said: "CSOP CSAM CSI A500 Index ETF is the seventh ETF we have launched in Singapore. This product's launch is achieved through the collaborative efforts of CSAM and CSOP, as well as the continued support of SGX. SUN offers investors a way to invest in leading Chinese companies across various industries. The successful listing of this ETF not only enriches Singapore's ETF market but also helps meet investors' demand for broad-based A-share index exposure."

SHANGHAI, June 14, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- The Gala Night of the 28th Shanghai International Film Festival (SIFF) was held in Shanghai today, bringing together filmmakers, industry professionals and audiences from around the world in celebration of cinema.
Running through June 20, this year's festival will present more than 420 films across over 1,600 screenings in Shanghai and cities throughout the Yangtze River Delta. As one of only 17 film festivals worldwide to hold official A-list classification from FIAPF, SIFF continues to serve as a major platform for international cinematic exchange.
The winners of the Golden Goblet Awards will be announced at the Golden Goblet Awards Ceremony of the 28th Shanghai International Film Festival on June 20.
A Night of Cinema Along the Huangpu River
The Gala Night transformed Shanghai into a vibrant stage for global cinema, welcoming filmmakers, actors and industry professionals from around the world. Golden Goblet Awards jurors, nominated filmmakers and representatives of major Chinese and international productions gathered on the red carpet, showcasing the festival's growing international profile and influence.
One of the evening's most significant moments was the presentation of the festival's honorary awards. Renowned actress and cultural ambassador Lisa Lu received the Lifetime Achievement Award, while acclaimed Chinese director Zhang Yimou was honored with the Outstanding Contribution to Chinese Cinema Award, recognizing their exceptional achievements and enduring contributions to the development of cinema.
The celebration once again highlighted Shanghai's unique role as a city where cinema, culture and international exchange converge.
Opening Film Afterpiece Makes World Premiere
This year's opening film, Afterpiece, made its world premiere as one of the festival's most anticipated events. Directed by Keane T.K. Wong and produced by Derek Yee, the film stars Stephen Fung, Chrissie Chau, Myolie Wu and Angela Yuen. The story follows a once-celebrated theatre director seeking creative redemption while navigating the increasingly blurred boundaries between performance and reality.
Developed under a Hong Kong film mentorship initiative pairing established filmmakers with emerging directors, Afterpiece reflects the continued transmission of creative talent across generations in Hong Kong cinema.
Members of the cast and creative team attended the Gala Night and participated in audience activities following the premiere screening.
International Jury Reflects Global Vision
Members of the Golden Goblet Awards jury met with the media in Shanghai ahead of this year's festival activities, representing filmmakers and industry professionals from around the world.
The seven-member Main Competition jury is chaired by acclaimed actor Tony Leung Chiu-wai and includes Chinese director Guan Hu, actress Xin Zhilei, Tunisian producer Dora Bouchoucha, Kyrgyz director Aktan Arym Kubat, Georgian filmmaker Déa Kulumbegashvili and Mexican director Fernanda Valadez.
"It is a great honor to serve as jury president of the 28th Shanghai International Film Festival. Cinema is the art of dreaming, and Shanghai is the very vessel on which the Chinese film dream set sail. I hold a few more tickets for this voyage—would you like to join me?" said Tony Leung Chiu-wai.
The jury's diverse composition reflects SIFF's longstanding commitment to fostering dialogue among filmmakers from different cultures and creative traditions.
A Truly Global Stage for Cinema
This year, SIFF received approximately 4,100 submissions from 125 countries and regions, setting a new record in the festival's history. Among nearly 3,000 eligible entries, 82 percent are world or international premieres, underscoring the festival's growing global influence and appeal.
Audience enthusiasm remained strong, with online ticket sales launching on June 5 and 250,000 tickets sold within the first 15 minutes.
Beyond screenings, SIFF continues to promote international collaboration through initiatives including SIFF PROJECT, the International Film & TV Market, industry forums and masterclasses. The Belt and Road Film Festival Alliance, initiated by SIFF, now includes 57 member institutions from 50 countries, further strengthening cooperation among film communities worldwide.
Chen Guo, Managing Director of Shanghai International Film & TV Events Center, said: "Our goal is to use the festival platform to help films transcend geographic, linguistic and cultural boundaries, encouraging deeper cultural dialogue and creative exchange among filmmakers and audiences from different parts of the world."
The International Film & TV Market will be held during the festival period, bringing together exhibitors, industry organizations and professionals from around the world to explore new opportunities in content creation, technological innovation and international cooperation.
