    Reported U.S. settlement over unlawful marketplace sales

    News reports said Alibaba agreed to pay a reported settlement over allegations that systems connected with Alibaba.com and AliExpress failed to prevent unlawful pharmaceutical and equipment imports. The matter is included because it directly concerns marketplace compliance, but its future-dated reporting requires verification.

    China supplier fraud incident leads CEO Wei Zhe and COO Li Xuhui to resign

    In February 2011, Alibaba's B2B company disclosed that some China supplier accounts were suspected of fraud, with sales staff either assisting or failing to review properly; the company cleaned up the accounts involved, and CEO Wei Zhe and COO Li Xuhui resigned to take responsibility. Resigning to take responsibility does not constitute a finding that the two committed a criminal offense.
