香港交易所的一名高层继承了超过百亿美元的股份遗产，这使得她在一家中国人工智能领域的巨头公司成为最大股东。根据8月份的一项监管报告，她的已故丈夫和公司的联合创始人谭某人留给她20%的持股，价值现今已超150亿美元。
谭某人在去年底因未公开的原因离世。其遗孀杨女士没有回应LinkedIn的询问，而香港交易所发言人表示，“不予评论员工情况。”香港上市公司SenseTime的代表们亦未予任何回复。8月19日那天，杨女士的账户中转移了超过6.9亿股还未上市的A类股份，并在8天后将其转为等量的B类股份，约等于总发行股份的20%。
杨女士59岁，在2013年前曾在香港交易所工作。她目前的角色是在2022年加入该公司，曾担任过亚洲太平洋ICI全球CEO和中国证券监管委员会投资基金监督局副局长。谭某人是麻省理工学院毕业生，也是香港的一名教授。他与他人共同创办了SenseTime，于2014年成立。
