(Beijing) – The killing of a businessman helming an online loan company has turned the spotlight back on the lack of regulations over peer-to-peer financing companies. 

An executive at Rowerp2p said the firm has appointed a new president and all client accounts remain 'normal.' An industry insider said the death of Wang Huishi, former president of the P2P firm Rowerp2p.com, in October could be related to a business conflict.
