UBS Bank AG is no longer working on the U.S. initial public offering of the owner of Blued, China’s biggest LGBTQ dating app, after gauging the market, joining a number of other banks in curbing work on some U.S. listings by Chinese firms.

The Swiss bank had been involved in the IPO until recently, people familiar with the matter said, who asked not to be identified as the information is private. However UBS’s name did not appear on BlueCity Holdings Ltd.’s filing on Tuesday with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
