Alibaba's Governance Leaves Investors at a Disadvantage - NYTimes.com

Alibaba's Governance Leaves Investors at a Disadvantage - NYTimes.com:



 "In Alibaba, control is going to be locked forever in the hands of a group of insiders known as the Alibaba Partnership. These are all managers in the Alibaba Group or related companies.

Furthermore, if the Partnership fails to obtain shareholder approval for its candidates, it will be entitled “in its sole discretion and without the need for any additional shareholder approval” to appoint directors unilaterally"
