A former client manager at China Construction Bank (Asia) Corporation Limited pleaded guilty to conspiring with a fintech company employee and accomplices to accept more than $470,000 worth of Tether (USDT) in bribes. The case involved illegally authenticating multiple false documents without bank authorization to guarantee several insurance-related investment transactions. CCB Asia uncovered the incident through an internal investigation, filed a corruption complaint with the ICAC, and provided assistance. Sentencing was adjourned to September 18, with the defendant remaining in Correctional Services Department custody.
