    Yun-Yin Wang's questions to UP Fintech Holding Ltd (TIGR) leadership • Q4 2024

    Question

    Yun-Yin Wang inquired about UP Fintech's 2025 guidance for new funded clients, asking why the target of 150,000 remains the same as 2024 despite outperforming that year's goal.

    Answer

    Chairman and CEO Tianhua Wu explained that the 2025 guidance of 150,000 new funded clients reflects a strategic focus on acquiring higher-quality users with better ARPU and average client assets, rather than purely chasing volume. He anticipates the 2025 regional mix will be similar to 2024, with Greater China as the primary contributor and increased expectations for Hong Kong and the U.S. For Q4 2024, Mr. Wu stated that approximately 60% of new clients came from Singapore and Southeast Asia, 25% from Greater China, 10% from Australia/New Zealand, and 5% from the U.S.

    Yun-Yin Wang's questions to UP Fintech Holding Ltd (TIGR) leadership • Q3 2024

    Question

    Yun-Yin Wang inquired about the regional breakdown of newly funded accounts for Q3, the reasons for the sequential decline in blended and cash equity take rates, and the impact of NVIDIA's stock split.

    Answer

    Executive Aron Lee provided the regional mix, noting Singapore and Southeast Asia contributed about 60% of new accounts. CFO John Zeng explained the take rate decline was due to higher futures trading volume, rising average stock prices on NASDAQ, and an increase in zero-commission Hong Kong trading. He added that the NVIDIA stock split had a minimal impact on the overall take rate due to pre-existing fractional share trading and the stock's already lower average price on the platform.
