Chinese tech giant Alibaba disclosed in documents filed in the United States and Hong Kong over the weekend that part of its stakes in more than a dozen entities are held by Chinese state-owned enterprises or foreign sovereign wealth funds, in response to an inquiry from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
