Low-profile Jack Ma living in Japanː Financial Times

-

TOKYO—Alibaba founder Jack Ma has been living in Tokyo for almost six months after disappeari­ng from public view following China’s crackdown on the tech sector, the Financial Times (FT) reported Wednesday, citing multiple unnamed sources. The billionair­e has kept a low profile since the crackdown, which has included Chinese regulators scrapping the IPO of Ma’s Ant Group and issuing Alibaba with record fines. But the FT said he has spent much of the past six months with his family in Tokyo and other parts of Japan, along with visits to the United States and Israel. Ma has been spotted elsewhere since he effectivel­y disappeare­d from public view in China, including on the Spanish island of Mallorca last year.
