BLOOMBERG CONFIRMS CHINA INCLUSION IN THE BLOOMBERG BARCLAYS GLOBAL AGGREGATE
INDICES

January 30, 2019

Beijing, January 31, 2019 — Bloomberg today confirmed that Chinese
RMB-denominated government and policy bank securities will be added to the
Bloomberg Barclays Global Aggregate Index starting April 2019 and phased in over
a 20 month period. The inclusion is a result of the completion of several
planned operational enhancements that were implemented by the People’s Bank of
China (PBoC), Ministry of Finance and State Taxation Administration.

When fully accounted for in the Global Aggregate Index, local currency Chinese
bonds will be the fourth largest currency component following the US dollar,
euro and Japanese yen. Using data as of January 24, 2019 the index would include
363 Chinese securities and represent 6.03% of a $54.07 trillion index upon
completion of the phase-in.

“Today’s announcement represents an important milestone on China’s path towards
more open and transparent capital markets, and underscores Bloomberg’s long-term
commitment to connecting investors to China,” said Bloomberg Chairman Peter T.
Grauer. “With the upcoming inclusion of China in the Global Aggregate Index,
China’s bond market presents a growing opportunity for global investors.”

The PBoC, Ministry of Finance and State Taxation Administration have completed a
number of enhancements that were required for inclusion in the Global Aggregate
Index in order to increase investor confidence and improve market accessibility.
These include the implementation of delivery v. payment settlement, ability to
allocate block trades across portfolios, and clarification on tax collection
policies.

“It’s a pivotal time in the development of China’s markets and inclusion in our
Global Aggregate Index is significant for facilitating Chinese market access for
global investors,” said Steve Berkley, Global Head of Bloomberg Indices. “Our
phased approach to inclusion is designed to give investors ample time to prepare
for what we believe will be a positive impact on the investment community.”

In addition to the Global Aggregate Index, Chinese RMB-denominated debt will be
eligible for inclusion in the Global Treasury and EM Local Currency Government
Indices starting April 2019.

Bloomberg will create ex-China versions of the Global Aggregate, Global Treasury
and EM Local Currency Government Indices for index users who wish to track
benchmarks that exclude China. Bloomberg can also create customized versions of
the indices as requested by investors.

Bloomberg provides an independent, transparent approach to indexing for
customers across the globe. For more information, please visit this link.
