KCAI KraneShares China Alpha Index ETF

Investment Strategy:

KCAI tracks the Qi China Alpha Index, which seeks to outperform the CSI 300 Index by applying a systematic machine learning approach. KCAI's index was developed by Quant Insight (Qi) to generate excess returns in China A-Shares through an alpha optimization filtering process combined with proprietary AI technology.

KCAI Features:

  • Long Only: Stock selection from the CSI 300 Index universe
  • Low Concentration: No individual stock can make up more than 5% of the ETF.
  • Frequent Rebalancing: Rebalanced monthly using proprietary AI investment decision making technology.

Why AI for China A-Share Exposure:

  • China A-Shares are vastly underrepresented in global indexes. While the United States has a weight of 64% in the MSCI All Country World Index, China only has a weight of 3%¹.
  • China A shares have exhibited an unusually low correlation to global markets of less than 0.4 over the past ten years,² demonstrating the potential diversification* benefits of adding an allocation to China A shares to a global portfolio.
  • Unique characteristics of the China A-shares market, such as high retail ownership and volatility, make it a potentially important source of alpha.

¹ Data from MSCI as of 12/31/2025. ² Data from Bloomberg as of 12/31/2025. Correlation is based on weekly observations of the MSCI China A Index and the MSCI All Country World Index (ACWI).

Why are China A-Shares well suited for AI alpha generation?

We believe the market is highly inefficient, with high retail participation compared to other global equity markets.

Retail Investor Participation

  • China A-Shares: ~80% of Total Volume
  • Hong Kong: ~20% of Total Volume
  • United States: ~20% of Total Volume
  • Japan: ~15% of Total Volume

Why are China A-Shares well suited for AI alpha generation?

China A-Shares have followed a boom-and-bust cycle over the past decade, leading to heightened volatility and potential opportunities for a more sophisticated strategy to take advantage of pullbacks.

The Qi China Alpha Index Methodology

Index's strategy applies a systematic machine learning approach to target a singular outcome of outperforming the CSI 300 Index.

KCAI Index Construction Process

  1. CSI 300 Index Equity Universe

    • Qi applies a proprietary filter to select stocks from the CSI 300 Index that meet minimum market cap and liquidity requirements.
  2. Alpha Optimization Filtering Process

    • A systematic, quantitative assessment is performed to rank sectors based on market regime shifts. A sector rank is applied for uptrends and downtrends. Stocks are then sorted by this ranking mechanism to generate index outperformance.
  3. Machine Learning Process

    • Qi's machine-learning algorithm observes these stocks' performance over a multi-year training window and then uses proprietary Bayesian ML techniques to select stocks that will track the index (Beta target = 1) on a forward-looking basis, while still preserving the alpha generation process.
  4. KCAI

    • The weight for each constituent is capped at 5% and the portfolio is limited to a maximum of 50 stocks.

The unique characteristics of China's equity market performance demonstrate its capacity to have a distinct portfolio impact and provide diversification benefits.

  • Over the past 23 years, China was the best performer in 6 years and the worst performer in 7 years.
  • By contrast, the U.S. was the best performer in 7 years and the worst in 5 years.

China's historical pattern of returns exhibits low correlations to other regions.

  • Average correlations between China's equity market and other major equity markets, including other emerging markets, have remained low over the past 15 years, maintaining correlation coefficients generally lower than 0.7.
  • Correlations remain low in bull and bear market environments.

Mainland China A-Share equities exhibit even lower correlations to other global markets

As Emerging Markets (EM) have become more correlated with Developed Markets over the years, the diversification benefits of EM investing have largely diminished.

  • Frontier Markets, countries whose stocks are less mature than those in EM, still have relatively low correlations with the rest of the world.
  • Remarkably, China A-Shares exhibit an even lower correlation to the MSCI All Country World Index than Frontier Markets.

Conclusion

  • China's A-Share equity market is under-owned by global investors relative to its size.
  • Recent reform measures have made the market more open to foreign investors.
  • We believe systematic trading strategies could provide more alpha in China A-Shares compared to global markets because of their inefficiency, which is evidenced by their high retail investor participation and heightened volatility.
  • The KraneShares China Alpha Index ETF (Ticker: KCAI) seeks to outperform the CSI 300 Index using best-in-class artificial intelligence (AI) intellectual property from Quant Insight.

Morningstar-Ranked Top China A Share Mutual Fund: Morningstar ranks mutual funds in various categories including China equity. The performance quoted is for the top-ranked fund in the China active category, which is an A share fund, as of 9/30/2024.

Qualified Foreign Institutional Investor (QFII/RQFII): The Qualified Foreign Institutional Investor program grants access to China's domestic stock markets to foreign institutional investors that register with and are approved for trading by the State Administration of Foreign Exchange (SAFE). Until the launch of the Stock Connect program in 2016, this and the similar Registered Qualified Foreign Institutional Investor (RQFII) were the only means by which foreign investors could access stock markets in Mainland China.

Stock Connect: A mutual market access program between the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, Shanghai Stock Exchange, and Shenzhen Stock Exchange. The program allows investors who are not citizens of the People's Republic of China (PRC) to trade stocks listed on the Shanghai Stock Exchange and/or the Shenzhen Stock Exchange through brokerage accounts used for trading on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange. It also allows for flows in the other direction, allowing investors located in Mainland China to trade certain stocks that are listed in Hong Kong.

Correlation: A statistical measure that calculates the strength of the relationship between the relative movements of two variables.

Volatility: The degree of variation of a trading price series over time as measured by the standard deviation of returns. Standard deviation is a quantity calculated to measure the extent of deviation for a group. A low standard deviation indicates that the data points tend to be closer to the mean (also called the expected value) of the set, while a high standard deviation indicates that the data points are spread out over a wider range of values. Correlation is calculated using weekly intervals.

Alpha: The degree to which an investment outperforms a designated benchmark.

Beta: The degree to which an investment tracks a designated benchmark.

Machine Learning (ML): The use and development of computer algorithms that are able to learn and adapt without following explicit instructions by using algorithms and statistical models to analyze and draw inferences from patterns in data.

Important Notes:

Carefully consider the Funds' investment objectives, risk factors, charges and expenses before investing. This and additional information can be found in the Funds' full and summary prospectus, which may be obtained by visiting www.kraneshares.com/kcai. Read the prospectus carefully before investing.

Risk Disclosures:

Investing involves risk, including possible loss of principal. There can be no assurance that a Fund will achieve its stated objectives. Indices are unmanaged and do not include the effect of fees. One cannot invest directly in an index.

This information should not be relied upon as research, investment advice, or a recommendation regarding any products, strategies, or any security in particular. This material is strictly for illustrative, educational, or informational purposes and is subject to change. Certain content represents an assessment of the market environment at a specific time and is not intended to be a forecast of future events or a guarantee of future results; material is as of the dates noted and is subject to change without notice.

A-Shares are issued by companies in mainland China and traded on local exchanges. They are available to domestic and certain foreign investors, including QFIs and those participating in Stock Connect Programs like Shanghai-Hong Kong and Shenzhen-Hong Kong. Foreign investments in A-Shares face various regulations and restrictions, including limits on asset repatriation. A-Shares may experience frequent trading halts and illiquidity, which can lead to volatility in the Fund's share price and increased trading halt risks. The Chinese economy is an emerging market, vulnerable to domestic and regional economic and political changes, often showing more volatility than developed markets. Companies face risks from potential government interventions, and the export-driven economy is sensitive to downturns in key trading partners, impacting the Fund. U.S.-China tensions raise concerns over tariffs and trade restrictions, which could harm China's exports and the Fund. China's regulatory standards are less stringent than in the U.S., resulting in limited information about issuers. Tax laws are unclear and subject to change, potentially impacting the Fund and leading to unexpected liabilities for foreign investors. Fluctuations in currency of foreign countries may have an adverse effect to domestic currency values.

Machine learning is a part of artificial intelligence that creates algorithms to improve from data without explicit programming. The Underlying Index depends on a machine learning model using various inputs, including historical data. If the model fails, the Index and Fund may lose value. Biases or errors in the model or data can lead to poor selections and may not be quickly corrected, harming the Fund. Additionally, machine learning models may overfit historical data and struggle with unexpected market conditions, negatively impacting the Index and the Fund. In addition to the normal risks associated with investing, investments in mid-size companies typically exhibit higher volatility. The Fund is new and does not yet have a significant number of shares outstanding. If the Fund does not grow in size, it will be at greater risk than larger funds of wider bid-ask spreads for its shares, trading at a greater premium or discount to NAV, liquidation and/or a trading halt.

Narrowly focused investments typically exhibit higher volatility. The Fund's assets are expected to be concentrated in a sector, industry, market, or group of concentrations to the extent that the Underlying Index has such concentrations. The securities or futures in that concentration could react similarly to market developments. Thus, the Fund is subject to loss due to adverse occurrences that affect that concentration. KCAI is non-diversified.

ETF shares are bought and sold on an exchange at market price (not NAV) and are not individually redeemed from the Fund. However, shares may be redeemed at NAV directly by certain authorized broker-dealers (Authorized Participants) in very large creation/redemption units. The returns shown do not represent the returns you would receive if you traded shares at other times. Shares may trade at a premium or discount to their NAV in the secondary market. Brokerage commissions will reduce returns.
