BlackRock announced today that it has raised 6.68 billion yuan ($1 billion) for its first China mutual fund, just two days after billionaire financier and philanthropist George Soros called its investments in the country a "blunder."
The world's largest asset manager said Wednesday that the fund — which has now raised 6.68 billion yuan — was officially established this week and has attracted more than 111,000 investors.
