Top Glove is talking to bankers on how best to list in Hong Kong and the process will take six to nine months, its executive chairman Tan Sri Lim Wee Chai told reporters in a briefing last month.

KUALA LUMPUR: Top Glove Corp., the world’s biggest rubber glove maker, is considering raising more than $1 billion from a listing in Hong Kong, according to people with knowledge of the matter.
