As of May 22, a total of 139 public funds have successfully concluded their fundraising campaigns ahead of schedule this year. Notably, equity funds have emerged as the largest segment, with 70 funds representing 50.36% of the total, marking an increase of approximately 10.5 percentage points compared to the same period last year. According to data compiled by Wind Information, this trend underscores the growing market appeal of equity funds. Recently, numerous fund managers have announced the early termination of their fundraising efforts, including the ICBC Credit Suisse CSI Hong Kong Stock Connect High Dividend Select ETF Linked Fund. Industry experts attribute this trend to a confluence of factors, including the resurgence of market sentiment, bolstered investor confidence, and fund managers' efforts to streamline the fundraising cycle.
