On July 10, China Life Insurance made an announcement stating its intention to sign a partnership agreement with China Life Industry Investment Management Co., Ltd. The aim is to jointly establish the Tianjin Shenghe Xincheng Equity Investment Fund Partnership (the final name is contingent upon industrial and commercial registration). The fund has secured a total committed capital of 5 billion yuan from all partners, with a primary focus on investing in companies within the semiconductor industry. This move exemplifies the broader trend of insurance funds actively engaging in the creation of equity investment funds throughout the year.

According to available statistics, over 10 insurance institutions have been actively involved in setting up multiple equity investment funds this year. Their investment directions span across emerging technology sectors, notably including AI and semiconductors. Experts have highlighted that the frequent (the word "dense" here is interpreted as "frequent" or "intensive" to better convey the active participation) participation of insurance funds in fund establishment is primarily motivated by several key factors. These include the pursuit of enhanced long-term returns, adherence to policy guidance, and the objective of smoothing out fluctuations in financial statements.
