Bloomberg reports that Didi Global, the leading ride-hailing app provider in China, is preparing to enter the Hong Kong stock market in 2024. This comes after the company’s IPO on the New York stock market in 2021, which was subsequently investigated by Chinese authorities, leading to Didi’s delisting from the New York stock market.
During its delisting period, Didi collaborated with Chinese regulatory agencies to address various issues, particularly market monopolization. The company was fined approximately 8 billion yuan last year and underwent restructuring. Currently, Didi’s market share in China stands at 70%, a significant decrease from its previous dominance of around 90%. Additionally, the company’s off-market valuation has decreased from $80 billion to approximately $16 billion.
