The top ten brokerages by revenue contributed 75.23% of total industry revenue, the top ten by net profit claimed an 83.37% share, and the leading ten by asset size held a 74% proportion of the sector's total assets.

According to Guosen Securities, the brokerage industry's performance is expected to sustain its strong momentum, driven primarily by structural improvements and business model transformation within proprietary trading operations.
