Malaysia led new funded account additions for the third consecutive quarter . Hong Kong and Singapore followed as key contributors , with new client cohorts in both markets demonstrating stronger initial monetization compared with prior periods , a signal of ongoing quality improvement in our more established markets . " " Total client assets were HK $ 1.40 trillion as of quarter end , up 43.6 % year - over - year and 14.5 % quarter - over - quarter . The growth was mainly attributable to higher market valuation of clients ' stock holdings , and to a lesser extent , net asset inflow . Margin financing and securities lending balance rose 30.5 % quarter - over - quarter to HK $ 95.1 billion , driven by an active Hong Kong IPO market , alongside upbeat sentiment that fueled higher utilization of leverage . " " Total trading volume reached a record HK $ 6.42 trillion , up 78.8 % year - over - year and 54.6 % quarter - over - quarter , supported by a meaningful acceleration in U.S. stock trading activity . U.S. stock trading volume rose 67.2 % sequentially to HK $ 5.02 trillion , driven by heightened client interest in semiconductor and other Al value chain names . Hong Kong stock trading volume grew 15.9 % quarter - over - quarter to HK $ 1.17 trillion , reflecting client engagement in semiconductor , China internet , and newly listed Al names . " " Total client assets in wealth management increased 10.4 % year - over - year and 1.0 % quarter - over - quarter to HK $ 180.2 billion , primarily supported by growth in equity fund holdings amid strong global equity market performance . In Hong Kong , we added new global equity mutual funds to our platform and expanded thematic investor engagement around frontier areas such as the space economy . In Singapore , we further broadened our fund shelf with new local equity strategies aligned with the country's capital markets development priorities . " " As of quarter end , we cumulatively served 683 IPO distribution and IR clients , up 32.1 % year - over - year . Against a robust Hong Kong IPO backdrop , we provided investment banking services to nearly 60 % of new listings during the quarter , including those of Star Sports Medicine , Lightelligence , and Metis TechBio . " " In recent months , we made meaningful progress across our global franchise . In June , Moomoo launched Prediction Markets in the U.S. , broadening the ways our clients can engage with financial markets and real - world developments , driving active client participation . Futu Securities also received SFC approval to launch a virtual asset financing service through our proprietary trading platform Panther Trade , further expanding our product runway within Hong Kong's evolving virtual asset framework . In July , we obtained a Type A license from the Thailand Securities and Exchange Commission , positioning us to launch Moomoo Thailand and further extend our footprint across Southeast Asia .
