Shein could decide whether to launch its blockbuster IPO in London as early as next week, City sources say.

Reports suggest the fast fashion giant is considering placing its £71 billion listing on the London Stock Exchange rather than in the US.

Shein chairman Donald Tang met with Chancellor Jeremy Hunt to discuss the potential float as part of a charm offensive in the city last month.

Shein was founded in 2012 in Nanjing, China, and is now based in Singapore.
