A senior Nomura banker has been allowed to leave mainland China after being banned last year from exiting the country amid an investigation into the tech dealmaker Bao Fan.
Charles Wang Zhonghe, chair of investment banking for China at Nomura International, had arrived back in Hong Kong where he was previously based, three people with knowledge of the matter said.
One of the people, a banker who met Wang recently, said he was now spending time back in the territory and added: “I think he is doing pretty good.” It is not clear exactly when the ban was lifted, but two of the people said it was within the past few months. The FT first reported his ban in September.
