China’s EV battery king CATL files Hong Kong IPO plan to fund global expansion
CATL, as the Chinese company is known, submitted its application draft with the Hong Kong stock exchange on Tuesday, following the board’s approval in December. The IPO size and timeline were not disclosed. A US$5 billion deal, as reported by Reuters, would rank as the largest since Kuaishou Technology raised US$6.2 billion in January 2021.
