Selecting Chinese A-Share Index Constituents from BigQuant Data

Summary

The note shows how to retrieve Chinese A-share index membership data in BigQuant and filter it for a chosen index. It reads the basic index constituent table, then selects records by the index identifier; an additional filter narrows membership to a specified date. The example uses the CSI 1000 identifier and says the same approach applies to the CSI 300, CSI 500, CSI 800, CSI 1000, and ChiNext constituents.

The document provides a compact query example rather than a full portfolio or trading strategy. It gives no performance evidence, details about how historical constituent changes are maintained, or guidance on using the resulting universe in a backtest. Users would need to confirm index codes and date conventions in the data source before relying on the output, particularly for historical universe construction.

Key ideas

• The basic index information data source contains Chinese A-share index constituent records.
• Filtering by the index identifier selects constituent records for a target index.
• Adding a date condition can retrieve membership for a particular date.
• The example identifies CSI 1000 constituents but does not discuss performance or backtest procedures.
