Noah Holdings (NYSE: NOAH), based in Shanghai, sees a good chance to extend its revenue stream by opening a $2.85 billion real estate lending fund (Rmb18bn).

Noah’s move coincides with Beijing’s desperate attempt to prevent a nationwide real estate market catastrophe by restricting bank financing to developers.
The fund would charge developers a higher interest rate than a traditional bank loan. Noah investors would earn a higher return from the price spread than they would from a typical bank deposit.
Noah claims to deliver financial goods to 25,000 rich individuals and businesses. The company is establishing branches across the mainland, with the top 50 to 100 entrepreneurs in each city serving as the branch managers.
Noah sells everything from stocks and bonds to real estate and private equity funds. More customized securities are also available, such as assisting an entrepreneur in raising funding by designing a security backed by equity in his or her company.
