Ecological Business Gains Momentum as Unique Advantages Unlock New Growth

Since the beginning of this year, policies such as the “Action Plan for Boosting Consumption” and the "Guiding Opinions on Financial Support for Boosting and Expanding Consumption" have been rolled out, emphasizing “expanding financial supply in consumption,”“increasing personal consumer loan issuance,” and “deepening integration of financial services with consumption scenarios.”Lexin actively aligns with these policies by enriching its product suite and optimizing user experience, bridging consumer intent with action in a more convenient and affordable way and continuously contributing to consumption growth.

In Q2, Fenqile Mall comprehensively upgraded its supply chain, onboarded numerous well-known brand merchants, and strengthened enhanced offerings such as "Zhenpin Hui" and "Factory Store" to meet users' diversified needs. High-quality consumption scenarios combined with major promotion activities drove the GMV of Fenqile Mall to rise continuously. Especially during the "6·18" period, GMV increased by 139% YoY, effectively boosting consumption.

Small and micro enterprises are crucial to economic and social development and people's livelihoods. Inclusive finance plays an important role in solving the funding difficulties of small and micro enterprises and enhancing their resilience.

During the quarter, Fenqile Inclusive, a subsidiary of Lexin, upgraded its products and services using big data and AI large models, continuously optimized user experience, improved the accuracy of credit matching, and effectively avoided misrejection issues caused by seasonal and cyclical business fluctuations.
