The average value of China’s fintech unicorns is at least eight times greater than the average value of North American fintech unicorns according to a new report on the fintech sector from Hong Kong.
WHub’s “2019 Hong Kong Fintech White Paper” indicates that mainland China is host to eight “global fintech unicorns that create impact” whose total valuation is USD$214.6 billion.
Hong Kong lays claim to four unicorns with a valuation of $8.5 billion, bringing China’s total number of leading fintech unicorns to 12.
The United States is home to 24 fintech unicorns with a total valuation of $76.6 billion, while the rest of the world is host to nine fintech unicorns worth $26.0 billion.
Even when $150 billion fintech giant Ant Financial is excluded, the average value of mainland China’s eight fintech unicorns is $26.8 billion, which is eight times the average value of $3.2 billion for North American fintech unicorns.
The average value of fintech unicorns in Hong Kong is $2.1 billion, while for fintech unicorns in the rest of the world the average value is $2.9 billion.
