In April 2018, the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection, and the National Supervisory Commission launched an investigation into possible "serious violations of discipline and laws" of Lai Xiaomin, the Chairman of China Huarong Asset Management, and the Chinese Communist Party Committee Secretary for Huarong. [8] As Huarong's Party Secretary, he emphasized in 2015 that during the operation of China Huarong Asset Management, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) committee inside the company should play a central role, and party members should play an exemplary role. [9] On 15 October 2018, Lai Xiaomin was expelled from the CCP. On 11 August 2020, the No. 2 Intermediate People's Court of Tianjin opened a public hearing on the case of bribery, corruption, and bigamy of Lai Xiaomin. The indictment alleges that Lai Xiaomin accepted 1.788 billion yuan in bribes, and illegally occupied public funds 25.13 million Yuan. [10] On 5 January 2021, Lai was found guilty of receiving 1.79 billion yuan ($277.3 million) in bribes and bigamy and was sentenced to death without reprieve for bribery, embezzlement, and bigamy. [11] His private assets were seized as well. [12] The sentence was carried out on 29 January 2021. [13]

2021 Bond selloff and default fears

In April 2021, offshore U.S. dollar bonds issued by China Huarong plunged in value. The selloff came after the company missed an end-March deadline to release its 2020 financial results. [14] Fears of a near-term default were eased after the company was said to have prepared funds for full repayment of S$600 million ($450 million) offshore bonds due 27 April. [15] To reduce the risk of market contagion and to stabilize its cash flow, Chinese regulators asked Chinese banks to provide loans to China Huarong. [16]

In August 2021, CITIC Group became China Huarong's largest shareholder with a nearly 26.5 percent stake after a group of state-owned investors bought into the company. [17]

2022 to present

In January 2024, the company was renamed to China CITIC Financial Asset Management . [17]
