    Greater China is more than just a diversified China play. The region is home to some of the world’s most cutting-edge companies, as exemplified by the United Greater China Fund’s Top 5 holdings

    President Trump’s 1 August tariff deadline has come and gone, and despite ongoing policy shifts, the global picture is becoming somewhat clearer.

    Within Asia, the hardest hit so far is not China but India, currently faced with 50 percent US reciprocal tariffs. In fact, the tariff situation within the entire Greater China region appears to be less bad than originally feared, with the effective rates expected to range from 20 to 35 percent.

    At these levels, innovative companies are believed to overcome any negative impacts and continue their profitable trajectory. The Top 5 stocks within the United Greater China Fund provide a glimpse into what this ultra-vibrant part of the world has to offer.
