Hi Isabella,

You can't directly participate in the IPO, only the pre-IPO. Well technically you can take part in the IPO from Singapore via POEMS, but you'll have to have S$200K to commit. The pre IPO is available at a minimum of 1 lot (100 shares).

If it is just Alibaba exposure you want, you can buy on the NYSE - the HK IPO is a secondary listing...
