Ant Group's listing may become the world's largest IPO
According to news from Chinanews.com, the official website of the Shanghai Stock Exchange shows that the initial inquiry of Ant Group's IPO has been completed. After nearly 10,000 investment institution account inquiry, the final A-share issue price was determined to be 68.8 yuan per share, with a total market value of 2.1 trillion yuan, which is more than before. Investment banks predict a valuation of about 2.5 trillion-3 trillion yuan, with a discount of about 20%-30%.
The issue price of Hong Kong stocks was also announced on the same day, at 80 Hong Kong dollars, which is basically the same as A-shares after excluding exchange rate effects.
