China is tightening regulatory restrictions on its rapidly booming quant trading industry, after freezing the accounts of a major player in the sector for three days in a rare crackdown. The stock exchanges of key financial hubs Shanghai and Shenzhen issued notices late Tuesday announcing they will deepen their scrutiny of market trades conducted by quant funds — which use advanced computer-driven automated analysis and algorithms to catch opportunities in stocks and commodities — especially of leveraged quantitative products, according to separate Google-translated statements. The bourses will strengthen and expand the scope of reporting of such trades and improve the monitoring standards for "abnormal" transactions. The Shenzhen stock exchange also noted that "quantitative trading, especially high-frequency trading, has obvious technical, information and speed advantages over small and medium-sized investors." The announcements come after both exchanges implemented a three-day trading ban on one of China's largest quant funds, Lingjun Investment, which the Shanghai bourse accused of "affecting the security of the Exchange's system or normal trading order" with a flurry of transactions executed between 09:30 a.m. and 09:31 a.m. local time, according to a Google-translated statement.

Oct 13 (Reuters) - Wang Yawei, a star fund manager in China, has been detained by authorities since August and is under investigation, according to three sources with knowledge of the matter. The 52-year-old founder of Qianhe Capital Management in Shenzhen and Top Ace Asset Management in Hong Kong is the latest high-profile Chinese business executive to be investigated or detained. His case relates to an investigation into Zhu Congjiu, a former senior official at China's top securities regulator, the sources said. Before setting up his own shop, Wang spent 14 years at China Asset Management Co (AMC), one of the country's largest mutual fund houses, as its vice-president and chief investment officer. Zhu is one of several former China Securities Regulatory Commission (CSRC) officials to come under scrutiny in recent years.

HONG KONG, June 28 (Reuters) - Four more property developers listed in mainland China said they have received approval to refinance via share placements totalling 19.9 billion yuan ($2.8 billion), in a sign of the regulatory effort to improve liquidity in the embattled sector. Tuesday's announcements of fundraising approval came as investors expect Beijing to unveil more stimulus to revive the crisis-hit property market as part of its broader goal of shoring up the economy. State-owned China Merchants Shekou Industrial Zone (001979.SZ) was the first to receive such approval on June 16. According to state media, for developers traded on the Shanghai bourse alone, 12 companies have announced plans to seek approval for equity refinancing totalling 40 billion yuan.

SHANGHAI, Nov 9 (Reuters) - A Shanghai Stock Exchange (SSE) unit said on Wednesday a market data system had resumed normal service following a temporary glitch that had led to abnormal data being supplied to information providers. In early trading on Wednesday, some investors complained in social media of abnormal data on various stock trading platforms, which affected their investment. The InfoNet also said that Shanghai market trading was not affected by the system switch, after checking with the SSE. However, many investors reported their trading platforms crashed or showed abnormal market data in the morning and complained about losses caused by the breakdown. This technical glitch came a day after a fat-finger incident in China's financial futures market.
SHANGHAI, Nov 8 (Reuters) - The Shanghai Stock Exchange (SSE) kicks off on Wednesday a week-long global conference to promote China's capital markets, according to an official agenda, the latest in a flurry of activities by regulators to woo international investors. Participants at the annual SSE Global Investor Conference, to be held Nov. 9-16, and closed to the media, include Chinese regulators, executives from global banks and asset managers such as abrdn, Deutsche Bank and PIMCO. At the Global Financial Leaders' Investment Summit in Hong Kong last week, the country's senior financial regulators reaffirmed China's commitment to economic growth as a priority. Senior Chinese officials also sent similar messages at the China International Import Expo over the weekend. In the "fireside chat" section, senior officials from China's securities and foreign exchange regulators will talk about promoting the opening-up of China's capital market, and facilitating cross-border investment.
