Nvidia's board has hired Joon H Kim, a former top New York federal prosecutor now at Wachtell Lipton, to conduct its internal probe into chief executive Jensen Huang's affair with an alleged Chinese spy.

The board announced the investigation on Sunday after Huang admitted to having an affair. The probe will examine the circumstances that led to one of the most powerful figures in tech potentially being targeted by Chinese intelligence.

A committee of independent directors will run the investigation, assisted by outside counsel, the board has said.

Kim acted as the top prosecutor for the Southern District of New York for 10 months after President Donald Trump fired then-US attorney Preet Bharara in 2017. That office is known for handling the country's biggest white-collar cases.
