OneConnect filed for an IPO in the US on Thursday, showing off the global ambitions of Chinese fintech companies.

The company didn’t specify whether the stock would list on the New York Stock Exchange or Nasdaq. It only said that it intends to issue ordinary shares in the form of American Depositary Shares, or ADSs.
