I am looking to invest in the Chinese Market via an Isa. Can you suggest an Isa investment that covers the Asia Market, including China? I would like over 40% of the investment to be in China. JC, London

Justin Modray at IFA Bestinvest replies: The First State Greater China Growth fund is worth consideration.

The manager, Martin Lau, has a good track record of managing money in this region.

It is important to remember that there are several ways of getting exposure to the Chinese market. As well as investing directly in Chinese stockmarkets, managers can buy Chinese companies quoted on the Hong Kong Exchange.

It is also common for fund managers to buy shares in companies based in other Far Eastern markets, such as Taiwan, that benefit from China's economic growth.

If you would like a more general Far Eastern fund that has exposure to China, both directly and indirectly, then consider Aberdeen Far East Emerging Economies.

It is run by Hugh Young, a very experienced manager adept at keeping risk to a reasonable level in what are traditionally volatile markets.
