Ant Financial will be listed in Hong Kong next year or in Hong Kong, raising more than US$10 billion

Recently, Hong Kong media said Ant Financial is preparing for listing in Hong Kong and plans to raise about US$10 billion.

In fact, as early as two months ago, there were news from insiders that Ant Financial was considering launching an IPO in Hong Kong in the first half of next year, but the news was denied by the ant gold official.

According to information sources from the investment bank, Ant Financial is discussing with Hong Kongâ€™s investment bank that had been responsible for 2014â€™s listing in Hong Kong and is currently planning to list in the first half of next year.

Two years ago, Ma Yun publicly stated that "I hope Ant Financial will be listed on the A-share market." In August of this year, â€œAnts Financial Service Concept Stocksâ€ was fired up in the A-share market. Regardless of which market IPO and when the ant gold service was in, IPOs from various sectors including corporate executives, investment giants, and even stars were all 6 last year. During the month A round and the B round of financing in April of this year, there have been a group of shareholders entering Ant Financial's list of shareholders.

In June this year, Ant Financial financed US$4.5 billion, and the company was valued at US$60 billion in financing transactions. According to a recent analyst quoted by Bloomberg News, the market valuation of Ant Financial has reached US$75 billion, which has surpassed the US financial giant Goldman Sachs Group. If Ant Financial is listed in Hong Kong, it will likely become one of the largest listed transactions in Hong Kong's history.
