As of the end of the second quarter, our total funded accounts reached 1.32 million, a year-over-year increase of 10.3%. In terms of client assets, retail users in markets such as Singapore and Hong Kong continue to contribute solid net asset inflows, exceeding $1.5 billion this quarter. At the same time, fueled by mark-to-market gains, total client assets stood at $60.7 billion at the end of the second quarter, up 3.1% quarter over quarter and 16.7% year over year. We are glad to see that client assets grew quarter over quarter across all the markets we operate in this quarter, indicating strong growth, resilience and tremendous market potential.

Client assets in the Australia and New Zealand market and the U.S. market grew by more than 30% and nearly 50% quarter over quarter, respectively.

第二季度,我们持续迭代本地化的功能,提升用户体验,并不断加大品牌曝光,深化用户认知。针对新加坡市场,我们进一步强化本地化的交易功能,上线了新加坡股票及REITs的碎股交易功能,有效降低了交易的准入门槛,让本地投资更加触手可及,对新锐投资者也更加友好。此外,为了简化用户的合规成本,降低报税的复杂度,我们在香港、新加坡及新西兰推出了专属的报税工具,升级后的工具优化了端到端的报税体验。用户可以通过我们的app及官网的个人中心直接查看并下载年度的报税参考文件,全面覆盖了交易盈亏、股息收入以及利息与票据收益等关键的税务数据。在香港市场,我们在第二季度加大了品牌投入与本地化的运营力度。本季度我们重点打造了一场以SpaceX为主题的品牌营销活动,通过户外广告、社交媒体传播、新用户专属礼遇以及香港机场的广告投放等多渠道的联动,全面提升了品牌的声量。与此同时,我们在香港也上线了Cboe指数期权交易,并且围绕TigerX Cboe指数期权的推出,举办了发布活动以及一系列的投资教育活动,进一步丰富了本地投资者的交易产品的丰富度。 In the second quarter, we continued to focus on localized functions and enhance the user experience while stepping up our brand exposure to deepen user awareness.

In the Singapore market, we further strengthened our localized trading capability by launching fractional share trading for Singapore-listed stocks and REITs, which effectively lowered the trading entry barriers, making local investment more accessible and friendly to beginners. In addition, to simplify users' compliance costs and reduce the complexity of tax declaration, we rolled out a dedicated tax reporting tool in Hong Kong, Singapore and New Zealand. The upgrade is to optimize the end-to-end tax filing experience, enabling users to directly view and download annual tax reference documents through our app and official website, comprehensively covering key tax data including trading profits and losses, dividend income, as well as interest and coupon earnings.

In the Hong Kong market, we scaled up our brand investment and localized operations during the second quarter. Our flagship marketing campaign of the quarter was built around SpaceX, amplifying our brand voice through an integrated mix of out-of-home advertising, social media, exclusive new user rewards and advertising placement at Hong Kong Airport. At the same time, we launched Cboe index option trading in Hong Kong and hosted a dedicated launch event for TigerX Cboe index option, alongside a series of investor education initiatives, further enriching the range of trading products available to local investors.
