The Chinese market corrections seen over the start of 2016 do not mean investors should run scared from the emerging market nation, according to leading fund selectors in Switzerland. That was the consensus view of selectors, strategies and investors polled during the most recent quarterly meeting of the Investment Strategist Association of Geneva. When asked whether they would now look to completely avoid China, members of the group were resolute, with 73% stating it was not the time to remove capital. This compares with 18% who believe it would be a smart move to shed exposure in the wake of the market suspensions and difficulties seen over the course of January. Nine per cent were undecided.
