    Shein set for major London share sale: report

    STORY: Shein is set to file for a massive share sale in London. That’s according to weekend reports by Sky News. It says the online fashion giant could file for the listing as soon as this week. It’s expected to value Shein at around 50 billion pounds, or close to $64 billion. That would be a little down on the price tag put on the firm at a fundraising round last year. The Chinese-founded company has stepped up preparations for a London listing after running into hurdles over a sale in New York. It’s faced pushback from lawmakers there amid concerns over its labor practices. Similar issues have also been raised in the UK, but Shein says it’s beefing up governance and compliance efforts in a bid to address the worries. Shein did not immediately respond to a Reuters request for comment on the latest report. If the share sale goes ahead, it would be a coup for the London Stock Exchange, which has struggled to attract big deals in recent years.
