China Industrial Securities International Financial Group Limited (CISI FIN, 06058) announced that its indirect wholly owned subsidiary, CISI Investment Limited, accumulated US$13.65 million (HK$107.15 million) in principal amount of notes issued by Joy Treasure Assets Holdings Inc. between 26 November 2025 and 5 March 2026. The aggregate purchase cost totalled approximately US$13.75 million (HK$107.96 million).

The notes form part of Joy Treasure’s US$2.40 billion Medium Term Note Programme and carry a fixed coupon of 4.30% per annum, maturing on 4 December 2028. They are unconditionally and irrevocably guaranteed by China Orient Asset Management (International) Holding Limited, a Hong Kong-incorporated subsidiary of state-controlled China Orient Asset Management Co., Ltd.

CISI Investment executed the trades on the open market; seller identities were not disclosed. Funding was provided entirely from internal resources.

When combined with previous purchases of the same series totalling US$8.50 million in principal (acquired from 26 November 2025 to 23 February 2026 for US$8.53 million), the cumulative principal reached US$13.65 million. On a standalone basis, the latest acquisition’s size is below the 5% threshold under Hong Kong Listing Rule 14.07. However, the aggregated transactions push one applicable percentage ratio above 5% but below 25%, classifying the series of purchases as a discloseable transaction. Consequently, CISI FIN must report and announce the deal but is exempt from seeking shareholder approval.

Management stated that the purchases align with the group’s strategy to broaden its investment portfolio and secure stable returns within an acceptable risk profile. The group’s core businesses encompass wealth management, corporate finance, asset management and proprietary investments.
