- As of Nov 4, 2026, ETFIQ places 25 stock ETFs in the China region, with a median fee of 0.65%, against 0.50% for Europe funds.
In plain words
A China ETF owns companies based in China or listed under its rules, including mainland and Hong Kong firms. Some own only large firms, others technology firms or smaller companies.
ETFIQ counts 25 funds; the median fee of 0.65% is above Europe’s 0.50% and Japan’s 0.49%, because trading in China’s markets costs more. Holdings close in Asian time, so the price can differ from value at the US close. Rules, taxes and share access can change.
