In recent years, the regulatory authorities have further strengthened the punishment of financial fraud and intensified the all-round and three-dimensional accountability. Recently, the relevant person in charge of the Economic Crimes Procuratorate of the Supreme People's Procuratorate said at the "Symposium on Difficult Issues of Legal Identification of Financial Fraud" held by the Law School of Renmin University of China and the Law School of Central University of Finance and Economics that we should adhere to the "zero tolerance" requirement and continue to increase the punishment and prevention of financial fraud. In criminal accountability, we need to grasp three issues. First, under the latest statutory principles, we should strengthen the convergence of execution, and adhere to the principle that "all suspected crimes should be removed, the arrest should be made, and the prosecution should be prosecuted"; Secondly, under the premise of adhering to the strict main tone, the criminal policy of "tempering justice with mercy" should be fully and accurately implemented. Finally, adhere to the whole chain to punish and prevent financial fraud. In the next step, the judicial case-handling organ will further subdivide the situation with relevant departments, improve the lenient and strict standards, and unify the judicial standards for law enforcement.
