SHIJIAZHUANG, HEBEI PROVINCE, CHINA / ACCESSWIRE / December 13, 2019 - Fincera Inc. ("Fincera" or the "Company") YUANF, a leading provider of internet-based financing and ecommerce services for small and medium-sized businesses ("SMBs") and individuals in China, today provided a statement regarding recent events.

On December 13, 2019, the Shijiazhuang Municipal Public Security Bureau announced an investigation of Qingyidai, the Company's peer-to-peer (P2P) lending platform, for alleged illegal acceptance of public funds. Several employees of the Company were detained, including Chairman and CEO Mr. Yonghui Li. The Company's offices in Shijiazhuang and Beijing were raided by government personnel and the Company's servers were taken offline.

Fincera believes the Bureau's allegations are without merit. In fact, the Company strives to be a role model for compliance in the P2P industry. It has not only welcomed and openly supported the central government's efforts to regulate the P2P industry but has also been prompt in complying with new regulations that have been introduced. The Company vehemently disagrees with the investigation initiated by the local Shijiazhuang government and is pursuing all available legal options. Fincera hopes the central government will also become aware of this situation and that the investigation will be fair and transparent in order to deliver justice to all Fincera employees and customers. The Company remains committed to serving its investors, individuals, and SMBs in China, and appreciates the support of all its stakeholders as it works toward a swift resolution in these matters.
