Until now, the terrible trail of dead bankers has been only among US and European financial executives. However, as Caixin reports, the increasing pressures on the Chinese banking system appear to have take their first toll. Li Jianhua, director of China's Banking Regulatory Commission (CBRC), died this morning due to a "sudden heart attack" - he was less than 49 years old. Li was among the main drafters on new "caveat emptor" market-based rules on China's shadowy banking system and recently said in an interview that "now is not only a time to control risk, but to transform the trust industry.. if it's too loose, it's a big problem." Li was found by his wife.

Via Caixin,

Li Jianhua, director of the CBRC AfDB died due to heart attack, still less than 49 years old. As planned, Li Jianhua this morning to attend a major industry conference.

According to several sources close to the CBRC said, Li Jianhua was revising to 12 o'clock at night.

Unexpectedly around 6:00 this morning, his wife found him passed away, due to sudden heart attack.

Both inside and outside China Banking Regulatory Commission expressed sorrow and regret.

Li was well-known as the author of major China Trust regulations...

Li Jianhua was born in July 1965, Hunan Yongxing, graduated from Wudaokou Finance Institute.

Li Jianhua was the main drafter of "one law two rules" or "People's Republic of China Trust Law," "Trust management approach" "Trust Capital Trust scheme management approach,"

I don't know the average age of a "senior banker", but suppose it's 50. The probability of a 50-year-old (American) male dying before his 51st birthday is about 1 in 225. I don't know how many senior bankers there are in the world, but if there were 4700 of them averaging 50 years old and their risk of death was similar to other similarly aged males, then you would expect 21 of them to die in within a year.

Given that there are over 12,000 banks just in the U.S. and that there are over 8,000 hedge funds, I wouldn't be surprised if there were at least 4,700 senior bankers. Hence, 21 of them dying in a given year is not entirely surprising.
