HONG KONG, Oct 6 (Reuters Breakingviews) - It’s getting harder for China Inc to go global, and tougher for global financial advisors to take on the rapidly shrinking pool of related mandates. Belgium’s intelligence service VSSE said on Thursday that it is trying to “detect and fight against possible spying and/or interference activities carried out by Chinese entities including Alibaba”. Fellow courier SF Holding is also preparing a Hong Kong listing to raise as much as $3 billion to support, among other things, ambitious expansion beyond Asia. Alibaba signed an agreement with the Belgium government in 2018 to open an e-commerce trade hub, run by its logistics arm Cainiao Smart Logistics Network. The Chinese e-commerce giant last month filed to list Cainiao on the Hong Kong stock exchange.

London CNN —Intelligence officers in Belgium are monitoring Alibaba’s logistics hub in Europe for possible espionage on behalf of the Chinese government. Belgium’s state security service VSSE told CNN Thursday it was watching the activities of Alibaba’s (BABA) logistics arm, Cainiao, at the country’s Liège cargo airport. “We strongly deny the allegations [which are] based on prior conjecture,” Cainiao told CNN in a statement. Liège airport announced in 2018 that it had struck a deal with Cainiao to become its European logistics hub. Last month, Alibaba announced a plan to spin off and list Cainiao on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange.
