"Since the implementation of the new securities law, the crackdown of regulators and judicial organs on illegal and criminal acts in the securities market has increased sharply, and the corresponding civil and criminal liability risks faced by counterfeiters and intermediaries have increased sharply. Many audit institutions no longer undertake high-risk projects out of the consideration of stopping losses or avoiding risks." Kuang Yuqing, the founder of lens research, told the Securities Daily, "Any listed company that cannot hire an audit institution should be focused by the regulatory authorities. Delisting is not a way to evade criminal and civil liability. For such companies, it is best to file a case for investigation, or consider that the regulatory authorities, investor rights and interests protection organizations and industry associations will forcibly designate an audit institution to settle in and clarify the problem."
