Karen Mok and his work partners have a reunion dinner and a big red envelope.

　　Karen Mok, who has just finished her work at hand and is going back to Europe to spend the Lunar New Year with her husband, recently hosted a group of hard-working colleagues in Hong Kong for a "reunion dinner" in advance to thank them for their support and help. Karen prepared a lot of seafood and restaurant specialties to greet everyone. The most delicious and popular is the traditional Hong Kong-style "bacon clay pot rice". For the first time, as a newly-married wife, Perry distributed red envelopes to every friend present, and specially selected three New Year ornaments as lucky draw gifts. Everyone was very happy and promised Karen that she would always support her in her career.　

　　Karen said that her working partners have been her pillars for many years. Without them, she would never have achieved what she is today. In 2012, she also has many plans to realize. First, the new album will be recorded at the end of February, which is very challenging and a very shocking project for her. However, Karen can’t disclose the details for the time being and will not announce it until the time is ripe. In addition, the Hollywood film Tai Chi Xia, which was filmed with Keanu Reeves, will also start shooting. She said that she is looking forward to this cooperation, and she should also start exercising recently to meet a series of work. However, she said that no matter how busy the work is, the time spent with her husband must be arranged. She has already agreed with her agent that she must not "exploit" her family fun time!

Huang Aizhou, managing partner of KPMG China Financial Technology, said that in the process of digital transformation of the financial industry, there are unique advantages in the three pillars needed for the vertical model of the industry: algorithm, computing power and data. The financial industry has mastered a large number of historical data and written materials, which provides natural convenience for the development of the industry model; In the process of financial digitalization and intelligence, financial technology enterprises have also formed unique solutions in terms of algorithms and computing power.

The report analyzes the listed enterprises in five dimensions: professional field, city and region, main technical elements, proportion of technical personnel and establishment time.

In the distribution of professional fields, platform technology empowerment and wealth technology rank first and second, Pratt & Whitney technology and insurance technology rank third, and AI and blockchain are still the core technologies in the underlying technologies.

In terms of urban and geographical distribution, Beijing, Shenzhen and Shanghai rank in the top three, and Chengdu ranks fourth for the first time. Tan Wei, chief partner of KPMG in China, Sichuan and Chongqing, said that in recent years, Chengdu has incorporated financial technology into the category of "building a circle and strengthening a chain" and become one of the 28 key industrial chains, forming an ecological layout that integrates Chongqing, links the whole country and sails the whole world.

In the distribution of main technical elements, the types of technical elements are more colorful, and the proportion of technical elements such as safety, credibility and large-scale correlation is obviously improved.

In terms of the proportion of technical personnel, 70% of the listed companies have more than 40% technical personnel, thus occupying an advantageous position in the fierce market competition.

In terms of the time distribution of enterprise establishment, the proportion of listed enterprises established for more than 10 years in 2023 has increased, and more enterprises that have been deeply involved in this field for a long time have continuously consolidated their market position by optimizing data processing, increasing transaction rate, simplifying financial service processes, and innovating financial products and services.

In addition, the report also puts forward nine major trends:

Trend 1: The development of financial macro-model will have a far-reaching impact on the paradigm of financial technology industry (annual trend). In the era of mobile internet, domestic manufacturers are actively developing the layout of financial big models, and relevant enterprises need to build competitive advantages by virtue of "having data" and "understanding scenarios". In the future, the wide application of financial macro-model will have the following changes: the change of AI cognition and concept, reshaping customer service process and experience, improving risk management, improving financial service efficiency and innovating financial business forms.

Trend 2: Science and technology investment pays more attention to output energy efficiency, and peer-to-peer science and technology output changes to ecological empowerment mode (integrated financial technology). Comprehensive financial technology enterprises pay more attention to business orientation and precise focus in objectives and methods, and change from technical empowerment to all-round ecological empowerment in service direction.

Trend 3: AI helps to innovate wealth management, and the core system of the organization is autonomous and accelerated (wealth technology). Wealth technology enterprises provide support for wealth management business scenarios such as investment, research and marketing, and will explore more application scenarios of large models to improve efficiency and service upgrade.

Trend 4: Insurance technology has evolved into risk reduction management, and the service boundary (insurance technology) has been continuously expanded in combination with industrial upgrading. Insurance technology companies turn the original uninsurable risks into insurable risks, and penetrate technology into the development process of all walks of life, which leads to new risk management demands.

Trend 5: Digital symbiosis and digital platform services accelerate the development of inclusive finance (Pratt & Whitney Technology).

Small and medium-sized enterprises access digital resources through the digital service platform, build a digital intelligent business process, meet the rapidly changing market demand, and accelerate the digital intelligent transformation of small and medium-sized enterprises.

Trend 6: Multi-parties join hands to expand the new blue ocean of supply chain finance, and scene product innovation is emerging (supply chain technology). The supply chain science and technology platform has accelerated its efforts in the scene business. It is expected that there will be more scene-based innovative products based on data credit in the future, and the traditional confirmation mode will begin to weaken.

Trend 7: Mobile payment innovation scenario application, cross-border payment opens up a new chapter in the sea (payment technology). The third-party payment platform at the C end expands its business by exploring new scenes and product innovation, and the mobile payment platform at the B end provides integrated services based on payment functions. The cross-border payment platform will also provide customers with integrated services to enhance customer stickiness.

Trend 8: Regulatory technology is expected to improve regulatory efficiency with the help of large models (regulatory technology). The development of regulatory technology will rely more and more on scientific and technological means to achieve more efficient and accurate supervision.

What is life? Life is:

Shoulder responsibility, hide pressure,

No matter how tired and bitter you are, you must move forward.

No matter how hard it hurts, smile.

What is life? Life is:

You cried, no one coaxed you,

You’re tired, nobody hurts,

You are poor, others look down upon you,

You are rich, and some people are jealous.

What is life? Life is:

A needle and a thread, you have to do it yourself,

Earn a penny and a dime,

A porridge and a meal, you have to save yourself,

When you cry and laugh, you have to act on your own.

What is life?

Life is half responsibility and half pressure;

Life is half happiness and half worry;

Life is half hard work and half rest;

Life is half tears and half sweat.

Life is: to be born, to live,

Life is: tears come out and swallow,

Life, never mistreats anyone,

It is the strictest teacher,

Teach you how to survive,

And reprimanded you for not making progress.

From the moment you become an adult,

Life brings you responsibility,

You can’t be as carefree as a child,

If there are mistakes, correct them yourself,

If you have difficulties, solve them yourself.

While taking care of yourself,

Also responsible for the expenses of the family,

No matter how much you earn, whether you are rich or poor,

The responsibility on the shoulder can’t be shirked,

Family happiness, to bear!

Life tells us that living is very tiring.

It also teaches us how to be strong,

Life brings us all kinds of problems,

It also allowed us to face it bravely.

Some women suffer all their lives, and some women are "forced" to become strong in life. The author writes them all in the book, not to compare who is tall and who is low, who is good and who is bad, but to make the original ecological presentation as much as possible. Recording their joys, sorrows, loves, hates and enmities actually has the significance of engraving history.
