Forbes China “Fintech 50” List Highlights Winners In Fast-Growing Field

Forbes: Looking to learn more about early winners in the exploding business of online finance in China?

Forbes China , the licensed China-language edition of Forbes, has set out to help with its inaugural “Fintech 50” list.  The new list takes into account user traffic, venture capital fundraising and hiring, among other factors.   The companies are presented in alphabetical order, rather than a pure ranking.

“China has the world’s largest numbers of mobile and Internet users, and many are embracing online finance,” said Bridge Kang, acting editor of Forbes China and co-compiler of the list. Entrepreneurs are scrambling into areas such as P2P lending. Already, China currently has 2,000 entrants into that niche, Kang said. Established Internet giants such as Tencent and JD.com are pushing to build up large online finance platforms, too, he said.

Members of the first-ever list include Zhejiang Ant Small and Micro, an affiliate of Alibaba Group, and JD Finance.  Here’s the full compilation below.
