Overview

Bosera was included in the first batch of investment managers of National Social Security Fund after strict reviews by the National Council for Social Security Fund and its expert panel in December 2002, and the first batch of corporate annuity fund managers after strict reviews by the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security and its expert panel in August 2005. In February 2008, Bosera was granted the qualification of specialised asset management by the CSRC. In September 2012, Bosera was included in the first batch of 9 recognised insurance fund investment managers in accordance with the Announcement on Recognition of the Report on Insurance Fund Investment Managers published by CIRC.

Bosera is well positioned to provide a full spectrum of diversified asset management services for segregated accounts such as National Social Security Fund, corporate annuity funds, customised asset management and insurance funds.

As of 30 June 2013, Bosera managed segregated account portfolios with net value of assets under management (“AUM”) over RMB89 billion, making it one of the largest domestic segregated account managers.

To engage in segregated account asset management, a fund manager needs to raise capital from or accept assets mandated by specific clients, and act as their asset manager to invest such assets in securities along with commercial banks as custodians on behalf of the principals (either in the form of one-to-one account or collective account). Segregated account asset management allows fund managers to cater for individual needs of institutional and personal investors through tailored asset management services.
