CLPS Incorporation is a global information technology, consulting and solutions service provider focused on delivering services primarily to global institutions in banking, wealth management, e-commerce, and automotive sectors both in China and internationally. The company leverages over 20 years of experience in the fintech and financial services industry to drive digital transformation and improve operational efficiency through innovations in artificial intelligence, cloud computing, and big data. Its diversified business lines enable CLPS to offer turn‑key financial solutions and comprehensive IT services to a broad range of clients worldwide. Operating across 10 countries with strategic hubs in Shanghai, Singapore, and California, CLPS maintains a global delivery network that combines onsite consulting with offshore processing to serve clients efficiently.

CLPS generates revenue primarily from IT consulting services billed on a time‑and‑expense basis, which include application development, system implementation, testing, and enhancement for banking, wealth management, e‑commerce, and automotive clients. A smaller portion of revenue comes from fixed‑price customized IT solution services that involve systems design, planning, integration, and post‑contract support tailored to specific customer needs. Academic education services, provided by the wholly‑owned subsidiary CAE, contribute revenue through fixed tuition fees for formal educational programs and newly added IT‑related courses. Additional revenue is derived from other services such as the CLPS Virtual Banking Platform for talent training, recruitment and headhunting, fee‑for‑service training, and software sales. IT consulting services consistently represent the majority of total revenue, exceeding 95% in recent fiscal years.

The company operates through the following segments.

• IT Consulting Services: Provides application development, system implementation, testing, and enhancement for banks, wealth managers, e‑commerce platforms, and automotive firms under time‑and‑expense contracts. This segment draws on CLPS’s extensive project experience and technical expertise to help clients build or modify proprietary systems.

• Customized IT Solution Services: Delivers fixed‑price solutions including unified research and development platforms, mainframe and open platform integration, business process management, testing centers of excellence, robotic process automation, and mobile applications, with post‑contract support ranging from 3 months to 1 year. The segment focuses on delivering tailored systems that meet specific client requirements while ensuring ongoing support after delivery.

• Academic Education Services: Offers formal educational programs and IT‑related courses such as DevOps, ChatGPT, Python, and SAFe Scrum Master through CAE, generating revenue from fixed tuition fees paid in advance of each course.

• Other Services: Includes the CLPS Virtual Banking Platform for training specialized financial IT personnel, recruitment and headhunting services that use advanced technology to attract qualified candidates, fee‑for‑service training programs covering domain knowledge and soft skills, and software sales that deliver implementation and ongoing management of software solutions. These activities collectively contribute a modest but diversified revenue stream.

CLPS holds a competitive position in the IT services market due to its breadth of digital transformation offerings, deep domain expertise in financial industries, and a large pool of bilingual IT professionals capable of serving both Chinese and global clients. The company differentiates itself through its talent creation and development programs, which have produced a skilled workforce experienced in Java, . Net, C, C++, testing tools, Android/iOS, blockchain, big data, cloud computing, AI, and mainframe COBOL. Domestically, CLPS competes with firms such as Shenzhen Forms Syntron Information Co., Ltd., Sunline Tech, Amarsoft, and CSII, which focus mainly on local banking IT outsourcing. Internationally, its peers include Wipro, TCS Consultancy, and Infosys Limited, while larger global consultancies like Accenture, Capgemini, Hewlett‑Packard, and IBM are typically engaged in larger projects; CLPS may compete with them only for smaller, specialized engagements in the Chinese market. Furthermore, CLPS’s continuous investment in research and development fuels innovation in areas such as AI‑driven credit scoring, blockchain‑based payments, and cloud‑native banking platforms. The company’s strategic regional hubs in Shanghai, Singapore, and California, together with subsidiaries in Japan and the UAE, enable it to deliver cost‑effective onsite and offshore services and maintain a scalable global delivery platform.

The company serves a diverse client base that includes major financial institutions such as HSBC, Standard Chartered Bank (China) Ltd., The Bank of East Asia Limited, Bank of China (Hong Kong) Limited, ANZ Bank, and Bank of Communications. In the wealth management space, clients comprise AIA, CUP Data, First Data, and Orient Securities. E‑commerce clients include eBay, PayPal, Greendot Shanghai, Stubhub, and Gumtree. Automotive and technology clients consist of SAIC Motors, Rising Auto, Sony, Cisco, AGFA Healthcare, Neusoft, and Kodak. By serving both Chinese and global customers on a common platform, CLPS leverages shared resources, management expertise, industry knowledge, and technology know‑how to attract new business and remain cost‑competitive.
