CITIC CLSA

Established in Hong Kong in 1986, CLSA became part of CITIC Securities after CITIC Securities acquired it in July 2013. Today, CITIC CLSA operates as the international-facing platform connecting global investors and companies with Asian and Chinese markets.

The firm provides institutional equities, research, corporate finance and capital markets, asset management, fixed income, equity derivatives, wealth management and fund services. Its strongest franchise is in Asian equities: research, sales and execution supported by local teams across major regional markets and access to China through CITIC Securities.

For students, the firm is particularly relevant for Asia-focused equity research, sales and trading, investment banking and cross-border capital-markets work. Its corporate-finance business advises Chinese companies on offshore financing and acquisitions while helping global corporations access Asian capital and assets.
