One of China’s most high-profile bankers, billionaire investor Bao Fan, has gone missing — marking the latest disappearance of a top executive in the tightly controlled country.

China Renaissance Holdings said in a market update Thursday that it has been “unable to contact” its chairman and CEO in recent days.

His disappearance is the latest in a series of cases of prominent Chinese executives going missing with little explanation amid President Xi Jinping’s sweeping anti-corruption campaign.

Shares of the Beijing-based China Renaissance Holdings plunged by as much as 50% in early trading Friday on the news of Bao’s mysterious disappearance, wiping off $357 million in market value. They were down about 28% in the afternoon.

His company announced he's still cooperating with authorities, but no proof of life was offered.


"Founder and chairman Bao Fan is still cooperating in the investigation by Chinese authorities, China Renaissance says in an exchange filing, an unspecified investigation launched by mainland Chinese authorities, according to the company."

"The CCDI is the top anti-graft body of the ruling Communist Party and is responsible for investigating corruption."

" The probe is the latest in a series of high-profile Chinese executives going missing with little explanation during a sweeping anti-corruption campaign spearheaded by President Xi Jinping."



Jinping is just showing him who's boss, that's all.
Considering he's made himself president for life, everyone needs to be on board for the long run.
