中投预计能收回投资美国基金的50亿美元

中国主权财富基金称，预计能够收回投资于美国货币市场基金的50亿美元，因其在该基金宣布停盘前已发出了全盘赎回指令。
China's sovereign-wealth fund said it expects to recoup $5 billion it invested in a U.S. money-market fund because it requested the money be withdrawn shortly before the fund froze redemptions.


中国投资有限责任公司(China Investment Corp., 简称：中投公司)周三表示，中投公司在Reserve Primary Fund 9月16日停盘时已不是该基金的股东投资者。中投公司在其网站上发布公告称，资金尚未收回，但预计能够全额收回。
China Investment Corp. said Wednesday it was no longer an investor in the Reserve Primary Fund when the fund suspended redemptions Sept. 16. CIC hasn't yet received the money back but expects to receive the full amount, it said in a statement on its Web site.


中投公司称，该美国货币市场基金已书面确认将返还中投公司的全部本息。目前中投公司已不是该基金的股东投资者，而是债权人。
The fund 'has confirmed in writing that it will return CIC's full capital and interest,' the Chinese investment firm said. It said it was now a creditor rather than shareholder in the fund.


记者暂时无法联系到Reserve Primary Fund就此置评。
Reserve Primary didn't immediately return calls for comment.


中投公司称，已经与美国证券交易委员会(Securities Exchange Commission)进行了交涉，强调了该基金对中投公司全额还款的承诺及中投公司的法律权利。
CIC said it has been in contact with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, 'highlighting the Fund's promise of full repayment to CIC and CIC's legal rights.'


根据一份提交给监管机构的文件，截至9月1日，也就是Reserve Primary Fund宣布停盘前大约两周时，中投公司通过一家子公司持有该基金11.1%的机构类股权。
CIC was listed in regulatory filings as holding 11.1% of the Reserve Primary Fund's institutional-class shares through a subsidiary as of Sept. 1, roughly two weeks before it froze redemptions.


Reserve Management Corp.的主力基金Reserve Primary Fund上个月成为14年来首只跌破1美元的货币市场基金，即每股资产净值跌至1美元以下。雷曼兄弟(Lehman Brothers) 9月15日申请破产保护时，该基金持有这家投行价值7.85亿美元的商业票据和中期债券。次日，在投资者纷纷撤资后，该基金称其每股资产净值跌至0.97美元，并宣布暂停赎回。
The Reserve Primary Fund, the flagship of Reserve Management Corp., last month became the first money-market fund in 14 years to 'break the buck,' meaning its net asset value fell below $1 per share. It held $785 million of Lehman Brothers commercial paper and medium-term notes when the investment bank filed for bankruptcy protection Sept. 15. The next day, after investors rushed to pull their money out of the fund, it said its net asset value had fallen to 97 cents per share and suspended redemptions.
