Dear Sir/Madam:

On behalf of our client, OneConnect Financial Technology Co., Ltd., a foreign private issuer organized under the laws of the Cayman Islands (the “Company”), we are hereby submitting a draft registration statement on Form F-1 (the “Draft Registration Statement”) relating to a proposed initial public offering in the United States of the Company’s ordinary shares, par value US$0.00001 per share, to be represented by American depositary shares (“ADSs”) via EDGAR to the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) for confidential review pursuant to the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act, as amended (the “JOBS Act”). The Company confirms that it is an “emerging growth company” as defined in the JOBS Act and its securities have not been previously sold pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). A registration statement on Form F-6 relating to the ADSs will be filed with the Commission in due course.

Financial Statements

The Company has included in the Draft Registration Statement its audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2018. As an emerging growth company, the Company has omitted its financial statements for 2016 and selected financial information for the years before 2017.
