FIRST QUARTER 2020 OPERATIONAL UPDATES
Wealth Management Business
The Company offers financial products and provides value-added services to high net worth clients in China and overseas for its wealth management business. Noah primarily distributes private equity,public securities,credit and other products denominated in RMB and other currencies.
Total number of registered clients as of March 31,2020 was 321,148,a 16.8% increase from March 31,2019,and a 9.3% increase from December 31,2019.
Total number of active clients[2] during the first quarter of 2020 was 4,075,a 49.8% decrease from the first quarter of 2019,and a 9.7% decrease from the fourth quarter of 2019,as we are in the transition of offering more online mutual fund products to our clients. However,counting in mutual funds clients,the number of clients who transacted with us during the first quarter of 2020 were 16,831,a 107.4% increase from the first quarter of 2019,and a 4.0% increase from the fourth quarter.
Aggregate value of financial products distributed during the first quarter of 2020 was RMB23.2 billion (US$3.3 billion),a 17.3% decrease from the first quarter of 2019,primarily due to the fact that the Company is adjusting its product strategy and thus no longer offers single-counterparty private debt products to clients since the third quarter of 2019. The aggregate value increased by 76.1% compared with the fourth quarter of 2019 due to the significant growth of public securities products offered by the Company.

Lending and Other BusinessesThe Company's lending business utilizes an advanced risk-management system to assess and facilitate short-term loans to high quality borrowers,often secured with collateral. The total amount of loans originated during the first quarter of 2020 was RMB0.1 billion,compared with RMB2.5 billion for the corresponding period of 2019,due to the slowed down notarization process during the outbreak of COVID-19,and our voluntary reduction of loan origination. Other businesses include an online financial advisory platform.Ms. Jingbo Wang,co-founder and CEO of Noah,said,"In the first quarter of 2020,our transformation to distributing more standardized products showed initial success. Driven by the continuous and strong momentum of public securities products that we offer,our transaction volume grew 76.1% from the fourth quarter of 2019. It is worth noting that standardized products accounted for 82.4% of the total volume,whereas credit products were 78.8% of the total volume in the same period last year. I want to attribute this success to our clients who continue to stand by us and our employees who have been showing great resilience during this difficult time facing an unprecedented global epidemic. As encouraged as we are by the strong start of the year,we remain cautious about the fact that some of Noah's overseas businesses have been affected by the COVID-19 outbreak and the travel restrictions caused by it. We have been actively preparing for the upcoming quarters of this year while increasing the investment and development of our IT infrastructure to further improve our online service experience and product offering. "
FIRST QUARTER 2020 FINANCIAL RESULTSNet RevenuesNet revenuesfor the first quarter of 2020 were RMB746.1 million (US$105.4 million),a 16.2% decrease from the corresponding period in 2019,primarily driven by the decreased one-time commissions and other service fees,partially offset by the increase in recurring service fees and performance-based income.
Wealth Management Business- Net revenues from one-time commissionsfor the first quarter of 2020 were RMB210.7 million (US$29.8 million),a 34.7% decrease from the corresponding period in 2019,primarily due to the decrease in transaction value as well as change in product mix resulting lower commission rate of financial products that we distributed.
