## Questions

### Does Yangtze River Industry Fund participate in direct company investments?

No, the firm is classified as a fund-of-funds manager. Its primary function is to make limited partner (LP) commitments to other venture capital and private equity funds, which then execute direct investments. These sub-funds have backed semiconductor champions like SMIC and YMTC, but YRIF itself does not make direct co-investments into operating companies.

### Which sectors does Yangtze River Industry Fund explicitly target?

The firm's LP commitments flow predominantly into funds targeting China's semiconductor supply chain — including chip design, fabrication equipment, and advanced materials. Beyond semiconductors, the mandate has expanded to cover hard-technology sectors that align with state self-sufficiency goals, such as renewable energy manufacturing, electric-vehicle battery technology, and industrial automation.
