Other Businesses
Noah's other businesses mainly include providing clients with additional comprehensive services and investment products. Operating results for other businesses also include headquarter rental income,depreciation and amortization,as well as operating expenses.
Ms. Jingbo Wang,co-founder and chairwoman of Noah,commented,"We made significant progress during this quarter in repositioning ourselves to drive growth in this challenging market environment. While sluggish domestic markets had a stronger-than-expected impact on our business during this quarter,we strategically used this window of opportunity to increase the pace of our overseas expansion as client demand for global asset allocation continues to grow. Excluding performance-based income,which was elevated due to the high base effect from the same period last year,net revenues from our overseas business increased 22.4% year-over-year. Transaction value from USD denominated products also increased significantly,as did the number of overseas registered and active clients,which increased 17.1% and 39.6% year-over-year,respectively. With these tailwinds,we are rapidly expanding our global offerings and expect to roll out new products originated from Japan and Dubai later this year. While we are still in the relatively early stages of our overseas expansion,these results have reinforced our confidence in our strategy going forward."
