Many investors in Chinese equities have been bracing for a 'hard landing', following several years of slowing GDP growth.

But while economic growth worries have abated, President Xi Jinping's ongoing spat with US President Donald Trump over trade tariffs has left many worried about whether this will dampen investment opportunities in the second largest economy in the world.

What headwinds and tailwinds might clients invested in Chinese equities have to ride out in 2019?

Despite disappointing returns last year, are there still opportunities and are Chinese equity funds the best way to be invested in the region?

Talking Point, in association with Schroders, considers what is in store for investors in Chinese equities this year.

The report, which can be read by clicking the link in the image above, qualifies for an indicative 30 minutes' worth of CPD.
