Alice Zhou brought a motion seeking intervenor status in an enforcement proceeding against Xiao Hua (Edward) Gong for alleged securities fraud and unregistered trading.
Zhou claimed to represent investors in China and raised concerns about Gong's identity and potential forged documents.
The Capital Markets Tribunal dismissed the motion, finding that Zhou was not directly affected by the proceeding, would not likely make a unique and useful contribution, and had other avenues to communicate her concerns, such as contacting Staff.
