KWEICHOW MOUTAI(SH:600519) Xin Lang Cai Jing·2025-12-11 09:53Core Viewpoint - The recent reform of the compensation system in the public fund industry has drawn significant market attention, marking the arrival of an "era of performance" where nearly a thousand fund managers face potential salary reductions due to underperformance [1][7]. Summary by Relevant Sections Compensation Reform - According to the new guidelines from the Asset Management Association of China, if a fund manager's product returns are more than 10 percentage points below the performance benchmark over the past three years and the fund's profit margin is negative, their performance-based compensation must be reduced by at least 30% [8]. - Fund companies are required to assess the performance of fund managers managing multiple products based on weighted criteria such as fund size and management duration, excluding funds managed for less than a year from evaluation [8]. Performance Data - As of December 10, there are 9,430 funds with performance data over the past three years, of which 1,615 funds have underperformed their benchmarks by more than 10 percentage points, and 56 funds have underperformed by over 50 percentage points [8]. - Notable underperforming funds include Guangfa High-end Manufacturing A, Fangzheng Fubon Innovation Power A, and Zheshang Smart Economic Dynamics A, with underperformance rates of 82.38%, 75.34%, and 69.84% respectively [8]. Focus on Fund Managers - The performance of senior fund managers over the past three years has become a focal point in the industry, particularly for Chen Xuanmiao from Penghua Fund, whose multiple products have shown poor performance [8]. - Data indicates that all five products managed by Chen Xuanmiao have negative returns compared to their benchmarks, with significant underperformance [8]. Specific Fund Performance - The Penghua Jiangxin Selected A fund has underperformed its benchmark by 28%, while Penghua Vision Return has underperformed by 24.53%, and other funds managed by Chen have similar negative returns [10]. - These funds have experienced notable net value declines, with maximum drawdowns ranging from 21% to 30% [10]. Portfolio Analysis - The top ten holdings across Chen Xuanmiao's five funds show a high degree of overlap, with a significant focus on consumer, pharmaceutical, and some undervalued cyclical sectors [10]. - Key stocks in the top holdings include Gree Electric Appliances, Kweichow Moutai, Renfu Pharmaceutical, and Mindray Medical, all of which are present in all five products [13]. Industry Transformation - The binding of fund managers' performance compensation to specific product benchmarks, rather than solely to fund size and management fees, indicates a profound restructuring of the asset management industry's operational rules [12]. - This shift signifies a fundamental change in industry values, emphasizing long-term investment philosophy, sustainable performance, and overall research capabilities of firms [12].
