AIA Group Ltd on Smartkarma

Smartkarma, an independent investment research network, has recently published a new report on AIA Group Ltd by Travis Lundy, a top independent analyst on the platform. Lundy’s report discusses the changes in benchmark on the i-Fund by the US Federal Retirement Thrift Investment Board (FRTIB), which oversees retirement funds for current and former federal employees. The change, which will take place in 2024, involves selling $1.6 billion worth of Hong Kong stocks and a total one-way flow of $20 billion. However, the change also means that the fund will include double the countries and more stocks, but will exclude China.

In his report, Lundy highlights the reasons behind the change in benchmark, which is to move from MSCI EAFE to MSCI All Country World ex-USA ex-China ex-HongKong Investable Market Index. This will result in the selling of approximately $1.6 billion worth of Hong Kong stocks, but also $20 billion in one-way flow from other countries such as Japan, UK, and Europe. The change was announced on November 14 and is expected to take place in 2024. Lundy’s report provides valuable insights for investors looking to understand the impact of this change on AIA Group Ltd and the wider market.
