Evidence Qualification - 8 September 2026

The personal-investment absence above is qualified by the SEC-hosted July 2016 transaction announcement already cited in the digital audit: the Playtika acquisition consortium included Yunfeng Capital, described as founded by Jack Ma, and Playtika was to retain its Herzliya headquarters. This establishes founder-linked investment activity; the announcement does not name Alibaba Group as the acquirer or quantify Jack Ma’s personal stake, Yunfeng’s stake, or continuing ownership.36
