1. Investment scope
QDII refers to qualified domestic institutional investors who can invest in securities, financial derivatives, capital markets, money markets and other financial products in the international market under compliance management. QFII refers to qualified foreign institutional investors who can invest in stocks, bonds, funds, futures and other financial products in China market with RMB or foreign exchange. Therefore, in terms of investment scope, QDII pays more attention to international layout, while QFII pays more attention to domestic investment opportunities.
2. Market impact
From the perspective of market impact, QDII and QFII have different functions in different markets. QDII can absorb domestic capital, provide more investment channels for domestic investors, and disperse enterprise risks. QFII can inject more foreign capital into domestic stock market and promote the stable development of the stock market. In addition, QFII and QDII can also promote the internationalization of China's capital market and improve its international competitiveness by investing in the capital market.
3. Risk control
In financial markets, risk management is very important. As qualified institutional investors, QDII and QFII must abide by domestic and foreign regulatory requirements and implement risk control measures. Whether QDII or QFII, we must follow the investment rules, strictly limit the amount of investment, and ensure fixed capital investment to control risks. In terms of risk control, QDII and QFII play similar roles to some extent.
4. Investment income
Both QDII and QFII will face the problem of investment income in the investment process. Compared with the domestic market, the international market has wider investment scope and higher risks, so QDII will face more risks while achieving higher returns; QFII can get higher returns in the domestic market, but at the same time it has to bear the corresponding market risks.
To sum up, although QDII and QFII are different in investment scope, market influence, risk control and investment income, they both play a very important role in international and domestic financial markets, providing investors with more diversified investment channels and higher income.
