(Reuters) Didi Global Inc., Meituan, and Geely’s Caocao are among 11 ride-sharing firms summoned by Chinese regulators over market practices.
The regulators accuse the ride-hailing firms of hiring unqualified drivers and unfair use of promotions that disrupt market order.
The regulators have called upon the ride-hailing firms to comply with set rules and maintain data security.
Chinese regulators have in the past held talks with the ride-sharing firms on issues ranging from driver salaries and safety. Continued entanglement with the regulator saw China’s top ride-sharing firm Didi face a probe following its New York listing in June.
DIDI: NYSE is down -0.76% on premarket, 3690: HKG is up +0.079%.
