It is a common practice for the regulator to seek supplementary information from listing hopefuls under this current system. The CSRC also asked Cainiao if beneficiaries of the firm's stock incentive scheme abided by Chinese foreign exchange management rules and other regulations. Cainiao was also asked to explain Alibaba's logic, principle and arrangements in spinning off assets for listing, and offer details of listing plans by other units.
