BlackRock Inc. over the past month has secured the licenses it needs to provide comprehensive service to domestic investors in China, said Susan Chan, the firm s Hong Kong-based head of Asia.
Covering the entire spectrum of clients in China requires two licenses, Ms. Chan explained in a recent interview.
The first is a fund management company license for business along the lines of your traditional asset manager, which BlackRock secured on June 11, she said. The second is a wealth management company license providing access to China s $4 trillion bank retail client channel, which the company and two joint venture partners garnered a month ago.
