About XiaoBangGuiHua

Xiaobangguihua is a Beijing-based financial software company that operates an intelligent investment and insurance advisory service platform. Founded in 2017 by Xu Bin, the firm targets Chinese middle-class families, providing financial literacy education and personalized consultation services. Xu Bin holds master's degrees in statistics and finance and has prior experience at financial institutions including Deutsche Bank, Morgan Stanley, and Snow Lake Capital. The company's name combines "Xiaobang" (help) and "Guihua" (to plan).

The company's business model is centered on educating consumers through online courses distributed via its own channels, such as a WeChat public account and a dedicated app, as well as third-party platforms. These courses instruct users on how to purchase insurance and other financial products. Following the educational phase, Xiaobangguihua provides one-on-one consultations to clients showing a high intent to purchase insurance policies, guiding them toward suitable products. The platform utilizes artificial intelligence algorithms and asset allocation models to deliver systematic financial solutions.

Xiaobangguihua has secured significant funding from prominent investors. After a seed round in 2017, it raised a Series A round in 2018 featuring Reinsurance Group of America (RGA) and Sequoia Capital China. In August 2019, Tencent led a Series B round of approximately $28.4 million, with participation from existing shareholders. The firm later secured a Series B+ round in January 2021, co-led by Lingfeng Capital and Yuri Milner, with continued support from Tencent, Sequoia Capital China, and Bluerun Ventures. This capital has been directed towards enhancing its technology, course development, and brand management.
