Shein has confidentially filed for an initial public offering in Hong Kong as the online fast-fashion retailer seeks to accelerate a drawn-out listing process and pressure the UK regulator into approving a London listing.
Shein（希音）已秘密提交在香港进行首次公开发行(IPO)的申请。该公司正寻求通过此举加快拖延已久的上市进程，并向英国监管机构施压，促使其批准该公司在伦敦上市。
The Singapore-based company, which was founded in China, privately filed a draft prospectus last week with Hong Kong’s exchange (HKEX) and sought the blessing of the China Securities Regulatory Commission, according to two people with knowledge of the matter.
据两位知情人士透露，这家成立于中国、总部位于新加坡的公司上周以保密形式向港交所(HKEX)递交了招股说明书草案，并向中国证监会(CSRC)寻求首肯。
Shein, which retains the vast majority of its supply chain in China, filed for a London initial public offering about 18 months ago, but has been unable to secure regulatory approval.
Shein大约18个月前申请在伦敦进行首次公开发行，但一直未能获得监管部门的批准。该公司的大部分供应链仍位于中国。
