“Global funds and investors had expected regulators to announce a launch date since May for the Shenzhen trading link, which will complement a scheme connecting Hong Kong with Shanghai. A delay beyond August risks pushing the Shenzhen project into 2016 and would cause a setback to Chinese regulators who have been gunning for a 2015 start. It would also potentially delay the inclusion of China’s ‘A-shares’ into global benchmark indices such as the MSCI Emerging Markets Index, as one of the key criteria for inclusion is greater access to China’s stock markets.”
