HANGZHOU, July 20 (Xinhua) -- Ant Group, the parent company of China's leading mobile-payment business Alipay, announced Monday that it has commenced the process of concurrent initial public offerings in Shanghai and Hong Kong.

The listings on the Shanghai Stock Exchange's STAR board (SSE STAR market) and the Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (SEHK) will help the company accelerate digitizing the service industry in China and driving domestic demand, and position the company to develop global markets with partners and expand investment in technology and innovation, Ant Group said.
