ALWALEED BIN TALAL & RIZVI CONNECTION

Rizvi Traverse Management, managed by secretive investor Suhail Rizvi, has halved its stake in Twitter (TWTR, +4.43%) and increased its holding in mobile payments company Square (SQ, -1.06%), regulatory filings showed on Friday.

When Twitter’s IPO was in the works, Suhail Rizvi quietly amassed a stake of more than 15% in the microblogging phenomenon for himself and his investors, Reuters reported.

Rizvi also played a role in convincing Kingdom Holding, Saudi Prince Alwaleed bin Talal’s investment company, to buy additional Twitter stock, Reuters reported in 2013.
