Recently, the Shenzhen Bureau issued "on the lessons learned to enhance the integrity of law-abiding education notice" to the area each fund management company. Notice requiring fund management companies should strengthen internal management, improve self-discipline mechanism, a good compliance culture of prevention "Rat" and other illegal activities from the source.

The case has become China's first fund from employees arising from the use of undisclosed information trading violations case be held criminally responsible.
Warning and educational first case can not be ignored
"Han Gang applicable criminal law article 180 fourth paragraph: the use of information dealing offense not disclosed." Dana Guangdong law firm Hu Ting pointed out that the provisions: employees of financial institutions because of his use of insider information to facilitate access to the information is not disclosed other than violation of the provisions in the information related to trading activities, the circumstances are serious, imprisonment or criminal detention and concurrently or more than five times the illegal gains fine; circumstances are particularly serious, over five to ten years imprisonment, more than five times the illegal income and impose a fine.
"The case as a fund manager's first violation of the provisions in the relevant trading activities jailed case, its warnings and educational significance can not be ignored." Hu said Ting.
Although Han Gang is the first case arising from the use of undisclosed information jailed for fund managers, but it is not the first fund manager in such illegal transactions. Previously, the Commission had dealt with a fund manager Wang Limin, assistant fund manager Tang Jianli use his position to facilitate and fund information is not disclosed, the sale of the same stock to profit through securities accounts they control the behavior of private interests, found Wang Limin, Tang Jian as Shichangjinru giving canceled fund qualifications, confiscate the illegal income, impose a fine penalty.
Moral hazard is difficult to control the formation of "Rat" the main reason
Fund industry "Rat" is emerging, mainly in the fund industry moral hazard is difficult to control. In general, the impact of the Fund's assets safe there are two types of risk: First, the market risk, the second is moral hazard. Market risk primarily from the professional quality of the fund manager's investment philosophy, market experience, such as the risk of the further development of the capital market gradually resolved.
The moral hazard from the fund managers morality, because moral cultivation is not enough to engage in illegal conduct transactions, fund managers will undoubtedly lead the illegal situation. For such risks, the most hated fund holders are also most likely to shake the trust industry foundation, but also difficult to control.
In fact, regulators have already given to this kind of phenomenon enough attention.
As early as July 2009, Shenzhen Bureau has issued the "warn securities, futures, fund practitioners to further enhance law-abiding behavior of the notice" (hereinafter referred to notice). To alert practitioners, "notice" listed a number of cases of illegal China Securities Regulatory Commission investigation, requiring securities, funds, futures companies and all of its employees to improve professional ethics training, strengthen self-discipline to the case had been investigated as a warning, a profound understanding of the criminal acts of employees job dangers and serious consequences, and resolutely prevent the transfer of benefits and behavior Infidelity, effectively protect the legitimate rights and interests of investors, to maintain the industry's image. In August, the Shenzhen Bureau in the area to carry out illegal transactions undisclosed information for employees in fund utilization on-site inspection, the inspection found Han Gang, Tu Qiang, Liu and other three suspected illegal fund managers, and the record for audit . July 2010, China Securities Regulatory Commission for James Strong, Liu made a canceled fund qualifications, confiscate the illegal income and impose a fine of administrative penalties, but also to take a market exclusion measures, while Han Gang due to serious cases were transferred to public security organs and eventually jailed.
Correctional combined with comprehensive management
In view of the above three fund managers have been severely punished according to law, Shenzhen Bureau once again warned all employees in fund, should be a warning to prevent harm to property fund moral hazard, Shang Fulin, the implementation on the "triple bottom line" in the spirit of the instructions.
In recent years, regulators adopted a "Correctional Overall Governance," the idea in the fight against employees "Rat." "Correctional integration", on the one hand by severely punish illegal behavior, so that the offender pay the price for their actions; on the other hand, more importantly, educating the employees learn a lesson, learn a lesson, honest law-abiding, hard-working diligence, do not repeat it. "Comprehensive management", not only reflected in the repeatedly issued a notice, to persuade employees to raise awareness, honesty; and start from the source, requiring internal fund companies effectively assume management responsibilities, organizational learning, establish a new system to the the possibility of reducing the source of illegal employees, maintain the industry's good reputation and credibility, build a law-abiding, professional, hard-working team of practitioners for fund shareholders to create more value.
First "Rat" into the criminal cases against the wind sounded the alarm Han Gang crime severely punished
2011-5-23 Jiang Yi China Securities Journal
China's first fund since employees use non-public information be held criminally responsible for illegal trading cases have been validated. Recent Shenzhen Futian District People's Court to make a public judgment, 38-year-old fund manager Han Gang was sentenced to one year imprisonment, confiscation of their illegal income and fined 310,000 yuan.
August 2009, the Shenzhen Securities Regulatory Bureau on-site inspection found that the fund manager Han Gang, Tu Qiang, Liu alleged violation and file for inspection. In the latter two cases concluded just before Han was sentenced to administrative penalties and Shichangjinru, Han Gang due to serious cases were transferred to the public security organs of China Securities Regulatory Commission investigation, becoming the first case of fund managers "Rat" into the criminal cases.
In mid-month, the Shenzhen Securities Regulatory Bureau issued "on the lessons learned to enhance the integrity of law-abiding education" which called for employees to fund the area of violations of law by a painful price as a warning, practitioners cherish life, integrity of the law, in order to avoid making the same mistakes; requires fund managers to strengthen internal management, improve self-discipline mechanism, a good compliance culture of prevention "Rat" from the source and other illegal behavior.
Severely punished crime against the wind
After August 2009, following Shenzhen Bureau issued "on the caution securities, futures, fund practitioners to further enhance law-abiding behavior of notice" month for the use of undisclosed information of employees in fund illegal transactions conducted a site inspection, Han Gang , James strong, bangs three fund managers to initiate an audit. This caused a shock in the fund industry, the market is also the regulatory heavy-handed regulation "Rat" highly concerned.
July 2010, China Securities Regulatory Commission for James Strong, bangs make canceled fund qualifications, confiscate the illegal income and impose a fine of administrative penalties, but also to take a market exclusion measures, while Han Gang jailed for aggravated final.
In the "People's Republic of China Criminal Law Amendment (g)" February 28, 2009 to implement the provisions of the first employees of securities companies, futures brokerage companies, fund management companies and other financial institutions, due to the use of other duties other than to facilitate access to insider information undisclosed information, in violation of the provisions of the information related to securities and futures activities, or express, implied others to engage in activities related to the transaction, in accordance with the provisions of insider trading criminal penalties, in serious cases, imprisonment or criminal detention and fined.
The legal profession that the illegal transaction time is a critical factor in penalties after February 28, 2009 is decided. In 2009, after February 28, Han Gang are still many illegal trading behavior, greater profits, in terms of time, money, or the severity of the circumstances should be severely punished.
That is the line loss of professional life
South Korea just prior to the incident as a fund manager's time is not very long, because the use of undisclosed information and jailed for illegal trading, career was ended.
In fact, the current overall age of Chinese fund managers little business experience is not long. Shenzhen Bureau Secretary Zhang Yundong think this group due to lack of market experience to bring to market risk fund holders will be appreciated, But if the moral issues of their own damage interests of the holders, undermined the market order, market culture, it must not be forgive.
In recent years, China Securities Regulatory Commission has always attached great importance to combating the illegal transactions, transfer of benefits and other acts. First half of 2008, the Commission dealt with Wang Limin, Tang Jianli use his position to facilitate and fund information is not disclosed by the securities account for the personal benefit they control the sale of the same stock to profit behavior. In 2009 the fund manager Zhang Ye, "Rat" behavior were investigated and dealt with promptly.
In the Shenzhen Bureau "on lessons learned, to strengthen the integrity of law-abiding education notice" that it would continue to implement the Chairman Shang Fulin on the "triple bottom line" of the spirit of the instructions of the "Rat", a non-fair trade, transfer of benefits and other irregularities We will not be tolerated.
Shenzhen Securities Regulatory Commission requirements, area fund companies to strengthen legal education for practitioners and compliance training, all employees should sign an undertaking of compliance; the companies to establish long-term mechanism to effectively prevent and control may violate the "triple bottom line" Insider conduct transactions, and strengthen the management of conflicts of interest.
Supervision will be more severe
Analysts said that from the overseas capital market situation, asset management institutions employing the use of undisclosed information trading stocks for profit is a chronic illness, but to a certain extent, by a strict system design, ongoing supervision and fund rigorous internal control system best avoid moral hazard. Mature markets overseas after years of development, we have gradually established insider trading surveillance, detection, sentencing a combat system.
Analysts believe that with the "Criminal Law Amendment (g)" the promulgation of the use of undisclosed information trading profit penalties become more severe. Some lawyers believe that not be the last Han Gang punished the future in such cases judicial crackdown will be growing, "the illegal income more than 150,000 yuan may be transferred." At the same time, the securities regulatory authorities will "Rat" behavior consistently strict supervision. For the first "Rat" jailed case, the majority of employees should fates warning, cherish life career, really avoid the tragedy from the source.
