China regulators and Man Group head mystery

Man Group is world's largest publicly traded hedge fund and when there China head mysteriously disappeared from public eye, speculation rose that she might have been detained by Chinese Authorities for investigation over recent stock plunge and the group's short selling activities.

Chinese authorities have stepped up their efforts so high that fund managers are required to explain from their regular trading strategies, over activity to any account to sometimes every day buy-sell quantities.

However, Ms. Li, head of China division, Man Group appeared today to shrug off any speculation over her whereabouts saying that she had been engaged recently in several meeting related to business and industry but she had been detained or taken into custody by police or forced in any manner to join investigative meetings with government officials.

She also said that she has been so tired after so much meetings that she took several days off to meditate and to drink juice and to climb mountains.

She also turned off her phone so wasn't aware of the happenings.

We are sure Ms. Li has freshened up, after her long holiday, however, please don't blame us if we take up all the stories related to China regulators and their investigations with a pinch of salt and adhere to the idea that these investigations by authorities are to do more harm than actual good.
