Lufax Holding, the operator of one of China’s biggest online wealth management platform, filed to go public in the US market, the latest Chinese company to shrug off concerns about worsening relations between the world’s two largest economies.

The Shanghai-based company is backed by China’s biggest insurer Ping An Insurance (Group) and follows in the footsteps of the insurer’s unit OneConnect Financial Technology, which raised US$312 million in its New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) debut in December.

Lufax said it plans to list its American depositary shares on the NYSE under the symbol, LU, it said in a regulatory filing early Thursday.

China’s Ping An Insurance Group Co., which last week bought 10.8 million shares to boost its stake to 8%, remains confident in HSBC’s long-term prospects, a spokesperson said. The recent slump in the share and the valuation only increases HSBC’s appeal, the spokesperson said.

“Ping An believes HSBC’s suspension of dividend payments is a short-term issue and has been actively communicating with the lender about the possibility of restoring dividends in the future,” the spokesperson said.

HSBC shares in Hong Kong on Monday rose 9.2%, the biggest gain since April 2009, clawing back most of last week’s tumble and adding $6.8 billion to its market capitalization. In London, HSBC rose as much as 11.5% —

Ping An Insurance Group Co (2318.HK) has increased its stake in Britain’s HSBC Holdings Plc (HSBA.L), making the Chinese insurer the company’s biggest shareholder with a 8% share.

A unit of the insurer, Ping An Asset Management Co, bought 10.8 million shares at an average price of HK$28.29 (£2.90, $3.70) per share.

It comes as British and US lawmakers criticised, HSBC and Standard Chartered (STAN.L) for supporting China’s national security law for Hong Kong, following Beijing’s handling of the pro-democracy movement in the territory.

The national security law criminalises criticism of the Chinese Communist party.

At the time, chief executive Noel Quinn, said: “We will face any political challenges that arise with a focus on the long-term needs of our customers and the best interests of our investors.”

Both banks, which are dual listed in
