Digital Disruption in Asset and Wealth ManagementCapgemini
The groundswell that is today impacting massively retail banking is now impacting all banking businesses. Opportunities offered by new digital technology such as Big data & analytics have not been fully explored yet by Asset & Wealth Management actors, and new technologies are mainly confined to improve shared platforms and reporting flexibility. But the turn might come soon now with the aggressive launches of Fintechs investing all parts of the banking business, including its most exclusive territories.
Asset and Wealth Management might be the next targets, facing the up-rise of new Robo-Advisors quickly gaining market
share on their devoted playground until now.
Traditional Asset and Wealth Managers should anticipate and react, building on their knowledge and assets in order to contain this new trend but this will require that they adapt and probably more globally rethink their business model, to avoid the commoditization of their activity.
The aim of this document is to present how Asset and Wealth Managers can take advantage of the digital revolution / emergence of Fintechs to become more competitive and attract more clients.

Tapping the Top Cream of
China's Wealth Market
2. Executive Summary
BUY
NOAH Holdings is a leading independent private wealth management services provider in China. It assists
third party product issuers in distributing RMB-dominanted OTC financial prodcuts to its propretary high net
worth clients, and in return earns one-time sales commissions and annual recurring services fees. Relevant
information as follows:
Fundamentals:
• Strong growth momentum of RM numbers and active client numbers
• Growth of transaction value
• Stable fee structure
Valuation:
• Target price $29.8 per ADS (two of ADS represent one ordinary share)
Consideration:
• The company optimizes its business model from a distributor to asset manager
• The company is heading to the right direction by diversifying its product mix
•The progress of internet finance and international business layout also deserves attention, with an eye paid
on decreasing operating margin
•Potential industry consolidation or fast growth of strong niche players may reduce NOAH’s growth potential
and negatively impact its performance
Recommendation
• The company should be more solid in bargining power to negotiate a favorable pricing strategy
•The company should keep a watchful eye on the regulatory matters in case the government may impose
new rules and stricter implementation of existing rules in the sector, negatively influencing NOAH’s business
