The results show that QFII's investments can improve the information efficiency of China's stock market, but its impact is varied. The impact of QFII's investments on market information efficiency is more significant in bear markets than in bull markets, the impact on private enterprises is more significant than on state-owned enterprises, and the impact on Small and Medium Enterprises(SME) market is more significant than in main board market.
