热门FOF密集成立 迷你化难题与长期配置机遇交织

Group 1 - The issuance of Funds of Funds (FOFs) has significantly increased in 2023, with 73 new FOFs launched by November 13, far exceeding the 31 launched in the entirety of 2024, and total issuance reaching 565.86 billion units, a 357.56% increase compared to 123.67 billion units in 2024 [1] - The core advantage of FOFs lies in their ability to achieve diversified asset allocation through professional fund selection and secondary diversification strategies, effectively reducing investment risks [1] - The surge in FOF issuance is attributed to a recovering market and strong demand for wealth allocation among residents, as single funds have struggled to navigate market style rotations in recent years [1] Group 2 - Gold-themed ETFs have gained popularity among FOFs, as gold's value as a safe-haven asset has become more pronounced amid global economic recovery challenges, while bond ETFs provide relatively stable returns [2] - Despite the booming issuance market, the "miniaturization" issue of existing FOFs is prominent, with over 520 FOFs in the market having a total scale exceeding 200 billion yuan, but an average scale of only 4 billion yuan, with 43.3% of products below 100 million yuan [2] - Many small-scale FOFs are initiated funds that require only 10 million yuan of self-owned capital to establish, leading to numerous "experimental" mini products that lower the average scale of FOFs [2] Group 3 - The short-term performance of FOFs has been pressured by stock market volatility in recent years, causing some investors to overlook the core advantages of risk diversification and long-term pension planning [3] - Concerns over the dual fee structure have led to a tendency for funds to avoid small-scale products, exacerbating the scale dilemma [3] - Industry insiders believe that the long-term value of FOFs in asset allocation will become increasingly evident, and their attractiveness to investors will continue to rise, with the industry expected to gradually overcome its challenges [3]
