Rumor: HKSE Rejects Alibaba IPO Rule Exception

Netease Tech, 9/04/13

According to an industry insider, the Securities and Futures Commission (SFC) of Hong Kong has convened a board meeting to address the potential IPO of Chinese e-commerce conglomerate Alibaba Group on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange (HKSE). The SFC has rejected all proposals that would provide Alibaba with an exception to HKSE regulations, including a proposed partner-led board structure that would allow Alibaba leadership to nominate up to five board members on a nine person Alibaba Group board.
