INVESTORS opened 352,203 accounts to trade stocks on the Chinese mainland last week, the most in three months and a third straight weekly gain.

A total of 351,258 investors opened yuan-denominated A share accounts in the period, up 5.08 percent from a week earlier, and 945 investors opened hard-currency B shares, a drop of 5.78 percent, according to China Securities Depository and Clearing Corp.

Investors held positions in a record 52.69 million accounts last week, rising by 234,100 from a week earlier and accounting for 37.54 percent of total accounts, the company said.

The introduction of stock index futures and margin trading are expected to attract more investors.
