The asset scale of China's individual investors' securities accounts increased in 2021, according to a survey conducted by the Shenzhen Stock Exchange.
Assets of the securities accounts of individual investors averaged 606,000 yuan (about 95,203 U.S. dollars) last year, up 9,000 yuan from 2020, data from the survey showed.
The sampled survey, covering 342 cities in the country, collected 29,100 valid questionnaires from investors who traded stocks on the Shanghai or Shenzhen bourses over the past 12 months.
Investors demonstrated interest in the infrastructure real estate investment trusts (REITs) that were first launched last year in the country, with 76.4 percent of them having some knowledge about these products.
REITs were regarded as fit for long-term investments as they were capable of producing stable and high proportions of dividends, the survey showed.
