据Ekonomi新闻网站周五报道，土耳其当局逮捕了前央行官员Erkan Kilimci，这是针对一起涉嫌庞氏骗局的不断扩大调查的一部分。
By Beril Akman Turkish authorities arrested former central bank official Erkan Kilimci as part of a widening investigation into an alleged Ponzi scheme, Ekonomi news website reported on Friday.
Kilimci曾担任Tera Finansal Yatirimlar Holding的首席执行官，该公司是Tera Holding AS的子公司，一直是调查的核心。
Kilimci was the chief executive officer of Tera Finansal Yatirimlar Holding, an arm of Tera Holding AS, which has been at the center of the investigation. Kilimci announced his resignation last week, saying he had only been in his position for three months, and that it was “unfortunate” he had been included in the investigation.
Kilimci上周宣布辞职，称他仅任职三个月，并表示被卷入调查“令人遗憾”。
Kilimci was a deputy governor at the Turkish central bank between 2016 and 2018.
Kilimci在2016年至2018年间担任土耳其央行副行长。
Some 45 people have been arrested as part of the investigation, including Tera Holding Chairman Emre Tezmen as well as several board members and executives from his companies.

近50万投资者受到市场崩盘影响，此前包括知名公司Tera在内的部分资产管理机构未能在上周大规模赎回潮中满足赎回请求。

Tezmen and dozens of other executives at financial firms linked to the scandal have had their assets frozen.

Some of the funds in question concentrated their portfolios in thinly-traded stocks, pumping up their prices and borrowing short-term money using those inflated stocks, according to financial experts who’ve looked into the trades. The funds up until recently had been yielding extraordinary gains in triple digits annually, sometimes even more.
据研究过这些交易的金融专家称，涉事基金部分将投资组合集中在流动性差的股票上，推高其价格，并利用这些被高估的股票借入短期资金。直到最近，这些基金的年化收益率仍高达三位数，有时甚至更高。
