Thematic (Sector/Industry)

Ministry of Finance released the NEV subsidy program for 2021, cutting them by 20% compared to the 2020 level for private purchases Xinhua reported. The subsidy for NEVs designated for public sector use, including buses, taxi, logistics, postal vehicles and public fleets, will be cut by 10% in 2021 from the 2020 level, coming into effect on 1 January 2021. The subsidies are dependent on a range of indicators including driving range and battery density.

China has bet big on NEVs as a strategically important industry, the government has five essential policy support tools for NEVs include reduced taxes, direct subsidies to manufacturers, consumer subsidies, mandated government procurements.

Cross Asset Strategy

It’s been an excellent year for investors in the China electric vehicle stock, but some investors believe the speculation rather than underlying fundamentals, is sending China NEV(New Energy Vehicle) stock higher. We remain confident in the China-based electric vehicle (EV) maker’s prospects due to strong government policy and continued growing market.
