The retail price of a Big Mac (Jan 2007) Country Big Mac Prices In Local Currency In Dollars Country Big Mac Prices In Local Currency In Dollars United States $ Hong Kong HK$ Canada C$ China Yuan Britain Argentina Peso Denmark DKr Saudi Arabia Riyal Japan Australia A$ Source: McDonald s; The Economist They are very different 4

10 Two Markets Top 10 AH Companies by Market Cap (As at 12 Sep 2007) A-share MV (USD Mn) H-share MV (USD Mn) Company Full FAF Freefloat Full FAF Freefloat ICBC 工商銀行 213,206 4% 8,528 53,867 45% 24,240 China Life 中國人壽 145,983 5% 7,299 35, % 35,407 Bank of China 中國銀行 139,719 3% 4,192 37,490 40% 14,996 Sinopec Corp 中國石油化工 149,854 6% 8,991 17, % 17,844 Ping An 中國平安 63,788 20% 12,758 26,518 55% 14,585 Bankcomm 交通銀行 47,160 7% 3,301 26,393 65% 17,155 CHALCO 中國鋁業 58,400 15% 8,760 10, % 10,333 CM Bank 招商銀行 55,393 40% 22,157 9, % 9,778 CITIC Bank 中信銀行 39,656 5% 1,983 9,206 40% 3,682 China COSCO 中國遠洋 32,614 15% 4,892 7,109 90% 6,398 Total 945,773-82, , ,419 9
11 Same Company = Same Price Can Be Achieved An arbitrage mechanism should offset the different pricing of shares listing in different locations of the same company Example: HSBC Shares traded in HK and London are closely tracked Indexed Return (%) London Hong Kong Indexed Return (%)
12 Should A shares and H shares trade at same price for the same company? 11
13 The Lessons from Big Mac What s the use of the Big Mac Index No one believe a Big Mac should cost the same in different countries Demand, Supply, Level of Competition, Taxes, Duties, etc.. might explain the price differences But being used as a way to predict exchange rate movements Market exchange rates usually differ from what being predicted by the Big Mac Index 12
14 Conditions for Same Product, Same Price Free Trade in EC0101 Goods are tradable (transportable) Lack of Trade Restriction No import duties, tariff No import quota No transaction costs The world is never that perfect 13
15 The Arguments for AH Shares Shares are different: Same underlying assets Same company prospects Same rights Same entitlements Investment, not consumables More importantly, Shares (Financial Assets) are: Easily transferable Low transaction costs Free of impedance 14
16 Can QFII / QDII / HSAHP Help to Narrow the Gap? QFII (Qualified Foreign Institutional Investors): Introduced in Nov 2002 as a provision for foreign capital to access China financial markets Quota Granted: ~ USD 10 Bn Slowing QDII (Qualified Domestic Institutional Investors): Launched in Jun 2007 that allows domestic institutional investors to invest in overseas capital markets Quota Granted: ~ USD 25 Bn Expanding fast Shortcomings: Only for Qualified Investors and Limited Supply 15
17 Questions Who know the companies better? A-share or H-share price better reflects the value? Should A-share price to fall? or Should H-share price to surge? 16
18 Any method to measure the price differential? 17
19 Any method to measure the price differential? 1. Any objective measurement of overall price differential? 2. How to measure the performance of these companies across both markets? 3. Any interaction between A-share price and H-share price? 18

21 Hang Seng China AH Premium Index ( HSAHP ) Objectives To provide market with a simple and easy-to-use barometer to gauge such a premium (or discount) Measurement To measure the average price premium or discount of A shares over H shares, weighted by freefloat market cap 20
22 Calculation Methodology Formula Valuation of constituents based on A-share price Index = x 100 Valuation of constituents based on H-share price Freefloat number of shares (A+H) x A-share price = x 100 Freefloat number of shares (A+H) x H-share price Premium Index A shares at a discount A shares at a premium Lower than Higher than

24 Long-term Direction for the A/H Price Differential? 200 Hang Seng China AH Premium Index (2 May 2007 to 25 Sep 2007) H-shares followed global market down on US sub-prime crisis Announcement of resident s direct investment scheme May-07 Jun-07 Jul-07 Aug-07 Sep
25 What are the Values of AH Premium Index? For benchmarking and market reference For forecasting the potential price movement of the A shares and H shares Particularly useful to track the A / H price differential phenomenon when China opens up its market through the QFII / QDII / Tianjin Pilot Project For derivative product development Hedging Arbitrage Difficulty: the A-share market is not completely open for foreign investment 24

29 Any Profit Opportunity? 20 Aug 2007: Announced the launch of Tianjin Pilot Program that allows Mainland Chinese citizens to invest in Hong Kong equities Hang Seng Index 5.9% H-shares Index 8.7% Investors have shown great interest in purchasing H shares trading at deep discount relative to A shares after the news USD CHALCO 中國鋁業 Times USD Datang Power 大唐發電 Times x +100% x H-share Price (LHS) A/H Price Ratio (RHS) % x H-share Price (LHS) A/H Price Ratio (RHS) x August 2007 September 2007 August 2007 September 2007 A-share Price +37% A-share Price -9% 28

31 Profit Opportunity If the A / H price differential is to diminish and return to the par level, an investor might be able to make profit at a return rate: A / H Price Ratio (%) Current A-share Premium at about 60% A / H Price Ratio (%) 1 Year 3 Year 5 Year Annualised Rtn: 60.00% Annualised Rtn: 16.96% Annualised Rtn: 9.86%
32 Is There a Way to Play the AH Market? Premises: Now A-share Price 160 H-share Price Year A-share Price = H-share Price (90% chance) Question: Method1: Method 2: How to make the 60 dollar profit? Short A shares, Long H shares Short the instrument that can track the AH Premium Index Or Long the instrument that is inversely correlated with the AH Premium Index 31
33 Where is the Market? Who wants to Short the AH Premium Index? Those who believe the A share premium will disappear over time Who wants to Long the AH Premium Index? Those who want to long A shares but being restricted by QFII Long H shares + Long AH Premium Index = Long A shares 32
34 Making H-Share More Available to Mainland QDII Direct Investment in Hong Kong market QDII Funds in China Selling to them at spot Index Fund in Mainland? ETFs in Mainland? 33
