Noah's Global Expansion and Innovative Services: Creating New Horizons in Wealth Management
Noah has continuously innovated and optimized its services to meet the increasingly diversified wealth management needs of its clients. This has been no different this year during its ongoing international expansion. From brand new solutions to targeted offerings in key markets, Noah has been proactive in its efforts to meet the increasingly diversified wealth management needs of its clients across the globe.
The company has now introduced a fully upgraded international brand system, including three major global brands: ARK Private Wealth, Olive Asset Management, and Glory Family Heritage, providing outstanding global wealth management, asset allocation, and comprehensive service solutions for Mandarin-speaking clients worldwide.
Noah understands that Hong Kong and Singapore are key gateways to overseas Chinese financial markets, and the company is actively building its business in both locations. In Hong Kong, Noah's Glory Family Heritage's digital insurance platform has redefined efficiency and transparency and was the first to offer digital insurance applications and premium payments in the market. In Singapore, Noah has established its own subsidiary and recently obtained key licenses to provide services. Both locations serve as powerful business hubs with enormous potential.
Further, through on-the-ground visits to the United States and Europe, Noah has refined its target customer profile. In the U.S., the company has established a product center team and is progressing with license applications to upgrade its business positioning. In Europe, Noah is also expanding its licensing-related business to better serve the local Chinese community.
The influence of Mandarin-speaking communities in emerging markets is becoming increasingly evident, and Noah has already established a management team in Japan to better cater to clients in this market. Meanwhile, in Canada and Australia, Noah has adopted a light-license model to expand its business there. By leveraging its global product shelf to empower channels, Noah is accumulating experience to expand in global markets and tap into overseas Mandarin-speaking client resources.
This strategy has led to notable performance growth, with Noah Holdings' overseas net income reaching RMB 376.9 million (approximately USD 53.7 million) in Q3 2024, a year-on-year increase of 28.9%, accounting for over 55.1% of total revenue. The formation of this global service network not only reflects the company's deep understanding of the needs of Mandarin-speaking clients worldwide but also provides more convenient and comprehensive wealth management solutions.

2024 has been a year of transformation for the world, shaped by the convergence of political, economic, and technological cycles. It is a complex and volatile macro environment, with diverse economic growth trends, political instability, disrupted trade, and interest rate fluctuations. In response to these challenges, Noah has implemented a diversified asset allocation strategy, covering categories such as stocks, bonds, and alternative assets, while balancing emerging and developed regions geographically.
Within product lines, the alternative asset sector has shown significant advantages and strong historical performance throughout the year, with a focus on traditional private equity and venture capital, as well as new niche categories such as cash management. Going forward, Noah plans to further strengthen its product matrix with a focus on emerging industries, innovative fund products, collaborations with globally renowned institutions, iterations on product offerings, further leveraging the potential of existing clients, and the exploration of new customer markets overseas. As an institution with a strong Chinese-background, Noah stands out compared to overseas competitors due to its rich product offerings, personalized services, and ease of access, especially in the alternative assets sector. There is significant allocation potential for new overseas clients in this area, which will help them achieve wealth growth and inheritance in complex markets.
The growth in assets under management (AUM) further reinforces Noah Holdings' professional capability and market leadership in the global Mandarin-speaking wealth inheritance service sector. As of the end of Q3 2024, Olive Asset Management, a subsidiary of Noah Holdings, reported an overseas AUM of USD 5.63 billion, up 16.0% year-on-year. Its share of total AUM increased from 22.8% to 26.3%. The AUM of overseas private equity and other primary market funds reached USD 4.27 billion, up 19.0% year-on-year. These figures highlight Noah Holdings' strong growth momentum in asset management and underscore its leadership in the global Mandarin-speaking wealth inheritance service market. Through these strategic initiatives, Noah Holdings has provided comprehensive wealth management and inheritance solutions for Mandarin-speaking clients globally, helping them achieve asset growth and inheritance worldwide.
