Mirae Asset Global Investments announced on the 17th that it held the "38th Mirae Asset Our Children Global Leader Expedition" in Shanghai, China.


The Mirae Asset Our Children Global Leader Expedition is an overseas program designed to help children develop the foundational skills needed to become global leaders. It is offered to subscribers of the "Mirae Asset Our Children 300 Million Securities Investment Trust G1" and the "Mirae Asset Our Children Chindia Sector Representative Securities Investment Trust No.1." Since its inception in 2006, the program has seen a cumulative total of approximately 13,930 participants.


For the 38th expedition, a total of 150 elementary school students from grades 4 to 6 participated in two separate groups in Shanghai, China, from November 6 to 9 and from November 13 to 16, exploring history, culture, and industry. The students visited the Provisional Government of the Republic of Korea building in Shanghai, the Bund, which showcases the history of China's opening to the world, and the Oriental Pearl Tower, a landmark in Shanghai's Pudong district, to experience history and culture firsthand. To offer a glimpse into future developments, the program included activities at the world's largest planetarium, where students explored the mysteries of the universe and China's aerospace technologies, as well as visits to a robotics center to experience various cutting-edge technologies.


Mirae Asset Global Investments operates a range of customized funds for children. The "Mirae Asset Our Children 300 Million G1" fund, launched in 2005, is currently the largest children's fund in Korea. It focuses on identifying domestic and international stocks with high future growth potential for long-term investment. In 2007, the company launched the "Mirae Asset Our Children Chindia Sector Representative No.1" fund, targeting China and India for their large populations and high economic growth rates. In 2023, it introduced the "Mirae Asset Our Children TDF 2035," Korea's first target date fund (TDF) for minors.


Seong Taekyung, Head of the ETF Pension Platform at Mirae Asset Global Investments, explained, "Mirae Asset Global Investments not only provides funds to help the next generation easily access investment and finance, but also offers a variety of programs to foster talent." He added, "We will continue to provide opportunities for children to experience not only history and culture but also advanced technology, so they can grow into global leaders."


The Mirae Asset Our Children Global Leader Expedition is funded by the Youth Financial Fund, which is created by allocating 15% of the management and sales fees from Mirae Asset Global Investments and the children's fund distributors, respectively. Program participants are selected through each distributor where they can subscribe to the Mirae Asset Our Children Fund.
