By the end of August, 163 management companies were operating a total of 12,132 public offering funds, according to the data.

Efforts will be made to continuously improve the scale and proportion of equity funds and create long-term and stable returns for investors, according to the China Securities Regulatory Commission.

The value of public equity funds stood at 3.29 trillion yuan at the end of August.
