‘Big Fund’ Graft Probe Ensnares Three More Individuals

An anti-corruption storm continued sweeping China’s semiconductor industry as investigators targeted three more current and former executives related to the country’s largest industry investment fund.

The nation’s top graft buster announced investigations Tuesday of three senior managers at Sino IC Capital Co.

Since July, six current and former executives of the fund and its management firm have been placed under graft probes, along with several others in companies the fund invested in.
