Group 1: Key Measures of the Action Plan - The plan emphasizes the need to strengthen the binding of interests between fund companies and investors, particularly through the implementation of a floating management fee structure linked to fund performance [2][3]. - Fund companies are required to establish a performance-based floating management fee mechanism, where fees are adjusted based on the fund's performance relative to a benchmark [2][3]. - The China Securities Regulatory Commission (CSRC) aims for leading fund companies to issue floating fee funds that account for at least 60% of their actively managed equity fund issuance within a year [3]. Group 2: Performance Evaluation and Incentives - The plan highlights the importance of a stable investment behavior and calls for a comprehensive evaluation system that focuses on long-term performance rather than short-term metrics [5][6]. - Fund companies must implement a performance evaluation system where investment returns are the core metric, reducing the weight of operational indicators like scale and profit [6]. - The plan mandates that the performance metrics for fund managers should have a weight of at least 80% based on fund performance over a three-year period [6].
