Syngenta seeks stock market listing in Shanghai

China National Chemical Corporation (ChemChina) plans to float its Syngenta subsidiary on the Shanghai stock exchange sooner than previously planned. As the news agency Reuters has learned the agrochemical company wants to publish its stock exchange prospectus in the coming days and start trading before the end of the year. In an interview at the beginning of the month with the German newspaper Frankfurter Allgemeine Sonntagszeitung (FAS), Syngenta CEO Erik Fyrwald had already expressed the hope that the initial listing could be completed before the end of the year. Now the company has apparently already submitted all the necessary documents to the Star Market technology exchange.
