This was reported by Bloomberg. The IPO could be the largest in history, the agency emphasizes. The previous record holder, Saudi oil company Aramco, raised $ 29.4 billion.<\/p>\n<p>The underwriters will be banks of the China International Capital Corp., Citigroup, JPMorgan and Morgan Stanley. According to the publication, Ant&#8217;s ambitious plans are related to a change in the company&#8217;s valuation, which grew from $ 225 billion to $ 250 billion (for comparison &#8211; PayPal is estimated at $ 206 billion, and Mastercard &#8211; at $ 335 billion).<\/p>\n<p>Earlier, the company planned to raise only $ 30 billion. Terms of the placement are still not specified.<\/p>\n<p>Ant Group owns the largest Chinese`s online payment operator Alipay. In the first half of the year, its revenue amounted to $ 10.5 billion, and profit &#8211; about $ 3.2 billion.<\/p>\n<p>According to the British version of WIred, Alipay was launched in 2004, but gained real popularity only in 2009 after the launch of e-wallets. Due to the lack of plastic cards and the abundance of smartphones, the service quickly gained popularity: in the first six months of its operation, the number of users jumped from 100 million to 150 million. Since 2011, Ant has been allocated into a separate company.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":123393,"menu_order":0,"template":"","newscat":[9],"newstag":[24740,27389,26430,28868,25786,28991,24347,26810,25564,24689,24678,24706,28990,28867,28869,28866,28870],"issues":[],"class_list":["post-123392","news","type-news","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","newscat-novosti","newstag-alibaba-group","newstag-alipay","newstag-ant-group","newstag-china-international-capital-corp","newstag-citigroup","newstag-hong-kong-stock-exchange","newstag-ipo","newstag-jpmorgan","newstag-mastercard","newstag-morgan-stanley","newstag-paypal","newstag-saudi-aramco","newstag-shanghai-stock-exchange","newstag-gonkongskaya-byrzha","newstag-gonkongska-birzha","newstag-shanhajskaya-byrzh","newstag-shanhajska-birzha"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/ldaily.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news\/123392","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/ldaily.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/ldaily.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/news"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ldaily.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/123393"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/ldaily.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=123392"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"newscat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ldaily.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/newscat?post=123392"},{"taxonomy":"newstag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ldaily.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/newstag?post=123392"},{"taxonomy":"issues","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ldaily.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/issues?post=123392"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
