What Everbright Securities does

Full-service Chinese brokerage under the state-owned China Everbright Group, offering brokerage, investment banking and asset management.

Income comes from commissions on client trades, interest on margin loans to investors, underwriting fees on share and bond issues, and fees on funds it manages, so results track stock turnover and issuance more than any single product. State-owned China Everbright Group is the main shareholder.
