SHANGHAI, Jan. 18, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- China Rapid Finance Limited ("XRF" or "the Company") (NYSE: XRF), operator of one of China's largest consumer lending marketplaces, today announced that it was named as one of the "2019 China New Finance Top 50" by Hurun Report. The Hurun Report, founded by Rupert Hoogewerf in 1999, is a magazine best known for its "China Rich List", a ranking of China's wealthiest individuals.


The top 50 list was selected through a rigorous approach based on a matrix of eight measurements that included company scale, growth, fund raising, industry leadership, risk control, media coverage, staffing, and user impressions. China Rapid Finance is one of the ten online lending companies that were named as the "2019 China New Finance Top 50" players.


"We are honored to be recognized for the fourth consecutive year by the Hurun Report in its top 50 list," said Russell Krauss, co-Chief Executive Officer and Vice Chairman of the Company. "The past year was challenging for the P2P lending industry, so we increased focus on our customers and product innovation. Recognition as one of the leading players in the new finance sector reinforces the confidence in our leadership position during this period of industry reform."
