We are determined to continue this prudent risk strategy in the first quarter of 2020 to mitigate uncertainties from COVID-19 situation. With our work force fully recovered in February, our D1 delinquency ratio has already normalized. Since inception, we have adopted a comprehensive operation system and risk modeling which enable us to precisely identify, price and categorize various borrowers according to different credit profiles. During the outbreak, we are glad to find out that borrowers in some certain risk categories stay at their normal risk level. In 2020, we will continue to deploy this competitive strategy and have full confidence in maintaining the risk management excellence.”
