The case of Zhou Qingyu, a former vice president of the China Development Bank, "has been transferred... for examination and prosecution", state news agency Xinhua reported, citing the country's top prosecutor.
Zhou, 61, was under investigation for "taking bribes and using his influence to solicit bribes", according to Xinhua.

China's President Xi Jinping has waged a sweeping campaign against deep-seated official corruption since coming to power a decade ago.
Proponents say the policy promotes clean governance, while critics say it helps Xi purge political rivals.
Recently, the campaign has targeted some of the country's top financiers.
Last month, Sun Deshun, the former president of the state-owned China Citic Bank, was sentenced to life in prison for illegally receiving property valued at over $130 million.
The former vice chief of the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China and a onetime Bank of China chairman are among several others under investigation.
