- Guinness Atkinson Asia Focus Fund (IASMX) is an open-end mutual fund that invests primarily in publicly-traded equity securities of companies economically tied to Asian countries excluding Japan; it maintains at least 80% of its net assets (plus borrowings for investment purposes) in such securities under normal market conditions, targeting companies across at least four different Asian countries with a focus on emerging markets; the portfolio emphasizes large-cap blend style stocks in sectors including technology, communication services, consumer cyclical, financial services, and industrials, with top holdings such as Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co Ltd, Samsung Electronics Co Ltd, Tencent Holdings Ltd, DBS Group Holdings Ltd, and Alibaba Group Holding Ltd. Launched on April 29, 1996, the fund is domiciled in the United States with headquarters associated with Guinness Atkinson Asset Management Inc. at 251 South Lake Avenue, Suite 800, Pasadena, California 91101; it has total net assets of approximately $11.63 million and a net expense ratio of 1.99%, with daily pricing and a minimum initial investment of $5,000; the fund is available for sale in the United States and managed by Edmund Harriss (since December 31, 2003), Mark Hammonds (since May 1, 2021), and Sharukh Malik (since May 1, 2021). The fund's asset allocation features 92.60% in non-US stocks, 7.09% in US stocks, and 0.30% in cash, with regional exposure concentrated in emerging Asia (49.13%), developed Asia (31.07%), Latin America (7.48%), the United States (7.09%), and Australasia (4.91%); it targets investors seeking growth in Pacific/Asia ex-Japan stock markets. Recent developments include ongoing portfolio adjustments by Guinness Atkinson Asset Management Inc., with disclosed holdings expansions into positions such as AMETEK Inc., Lam Research Corp., and BlackRock Inc., alongside reductions or exits from others like DoubleVerify Holdings Inc. and The Trade Desk Inc. as of the latest SEC 13F filings in early 2025; the firm also launched a new real assets fund focused on infrastructure and real estate in July 2025, reflecting broader strategic diversification efforts; no major acquisitions, funding rounds, or name changes specific to IASMX were reported in 2024-2025, though the fund continues to align with benchmarks like the MSCI AC Far East ex Japan NR USD index.
