Meantime, the company has also been allocated its first investment quota by the Chinese State Administration of Foreign Exchange.
The RQFII quota will allow Investec’s investors to allocate their capital on a global basis and to access the future growth potential of China in a product structure which offers both flexibility and liquidity.
Investec said that the license will expand its international presence and global client base.
