Chinese fintech giant Ant Group gets approval for no-controller status, ending Jack Ma’s reign before seeking IPO
中国金融科技巨头蚂蚁集团获得无实控人的批准，结束了马云在准备IPO之前的统治
China’s central bank has agreed that Ant Group’s mobile payment app Alipay has no controller, a crucial step in the fintech giant’s overhaul deemed necessary to put its much-anticipated initial public offering back on track.
中国央行已同意蚂蚁集团的移动支付应用支付宝没有实控人，这是这家金融科技巨头进行全面改革的关键一步，被认为是其备受期待的重新IPO所必需的前置条件。
The restructuring saw the voting rights of founder Jack Ma shrink to just 6.21 per cent from 53.46 per cent. The move is seen as paving the way for Ant to resume its public listing that was derailed in 2020 following a controversial speech given by Ma.
重组后，创始人马云的投票权从53.46%缩减至6.21%。此举被视为蚂蚁金服恢复其公开上市铺平了道路，该上市在马云发表有争议的演讲后于 2020 年戛然而止。
