Core Viewpoint - The introduction of the "whistleblower" system upgrade by the China Securities Regulatory Commission (CSRC) and the Ministry of Finance aims to enhance the detection and reporting of illegal activities in the capital market, addressing the increasing complexity and concealment of such violations [1][2].
