ETF · Currency in USD · Last updated Jun 25, 2026

KWEB, or the KraneShares CSI Overseas China Internet ETF, is an exchange-traded fund (ETF) managed by China International Capital Corporation (CICC). It is designed to track the investment results of the CSI Overseas China Internet index, which consists of companies listed on global stock exchanges that are engaged in the internet industry in China. This index is designed to provide investors with exposure to the growing internet industry in China, which has been driven by the increasing adoption of mobile devices, the expansion of e-commerce, and the growth of the digital economy in the country.

KWEB was launched on July 31, 2013, and has a 0.76% expense ratio, which is high compared to other passive mutual funds or ETFs.

KWEB is a passive ETF, meaning it tracks the performance of the underlying index rather than actively seeking to outperform it. This can make it a suitable investment for those looking for exposure to the internet industry in China without the added risk and cost of active management. So, KWEB can be a good investment option for those who want to diversify their portfolio and gain exposure to the growing internet industry in China.
