Mr. Ning Tang, Chairman and CEO of Yiren Digital, commented that sustainable development has become a global consensus and a defining mission for enterprises. As a leading AI-driven fintech platform, the Company is dedicated to integrating AI across diverse scenarios, enabling millisecond-level risk control, hyper-personalized marketing, and seamless intelligent service experiences. These initiatives not only enhance quality of life for individuals, but also create lasting value for our partners.

AI-Powered Transformation Across the Value Chain

In 2024, Yiren Digital advanced its "AI + Multi-use Cases" strategy, leveraging its proprietary high-performance AI models to enhance risk management, personalized marketing, and intelligent customer service. This resulted in sector-leading customer satisfaction rates of 94% in financial services, 98% in insurance brokerage, and 96% in lifestyle solutions.

In 2024, the Company's self-developed Hawkeye anti-fraud model, combining AI automation with human oversight, intercepted 16,800 fraudulent loan applications and prevented losses of RMB 180 million. Additional manual interventions averted a further RMB 54.43 million in potential losses. Yiren Digital maintained rigorous information security standards and completed 37 security tests and successfully defended against millions of malicious scans and cyberattacks.

Yiren Digital continued to expand the reach of inclusive finance, facilitating over RMB 53.6 billion in loans for more than 4 million clients, including small and micro business owners as well as women entrepreneurs. The Company also provided over RMB 86 billion in risk coverage for gig economy workers, including truck drivers and delivery personnel. In addition, it promoted insurance and philanthropy programs for child development and rural revitalization.

Leading the Green Transition

The Company reduced energy use and carbon emissions, with over 90% of the equipment in its Beijing offices being energy-efficient, and a 5% decrease in greenhouse gas emissions year-on-year. Strict lending restrictions were placed on business owners in high-emission sectors, with financing directed towards low-carbon industries, including support for new energy, high-efficiency technologies, resource recycling, and environmental monitoring.
