SGX lists CSOP CSI A500 ETF; management fee set at 0.89%

CSOP says the feeder ETF invests at least 90% of its NAV into the China Southern CSI A500 ETF.

SGX has welcomed the listing of the CSOP CSAM CSI A500 Index ETF, giving investors in Singapore another channel to access China’s A-share market through a broad-based benchmark.

The ETF, which trades on SGX under the code SUN, tracks the CSI A500 Index, comprising 500 of China’s largest and most liquid A-share companies.

SGX said more than 50% of the index is weighted towards innovation-driven sectors such as technology, hardware, and advanced manufacturing. The listing marks the 11th ETF under the China–Singapore ETF Link and the sixth under the Shenzhen Stock Exchange–SGX ETF Link.

CSOP said the fund is Singapore’s first CSI A500 Index ETF and is listed at $1 per share with a minimum lot size of one share.

It carries an annual management fee of 0.89% and is structured as a feeder ETF, investing at least 90% of its net asset value in the China Southern CSI A500 ETF through Qualified Foreign Investor status and other permitted channels.

According to CSOP, the underlying China-listed fund, which debuted in 2024, had assets under management of approximately RMB 47.1b as of 08 Jan., ranking second globally among similar products and the largest of its kind on the Shenzhen Stock Exchange.

CSOP also stated that the CSI A500 Index returned 22.43% in 2025.

SGX said the new listing expands its ETF range to 51 products with combined assets under management exceeding $18b. It added that ETF assets on SGX rose 37% YoY in 2025, whilst average daily turnover increased 69%.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.


The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.


So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
