The Chinese Communist Party crackdown on ship finance has resumed with the reported airport detention of a former team leader at ICBC Financial Leasing.

Chinese financial sources told TradeWinds that Zhang Siliang (Stacy Zhang) was detained on 2 or 3 February by officials of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection (CCDI) at Shanghai’s Pudong Airport.

Until her duties changed late last year in a broader reorganisation, Zhang was the commercial head of gas shipping at the Beijing-based ship finance powerhouse.
