IMO E.

A: No verb
B & C: Only 'Comma' is incorrect to join two independent clauses
D: incorrect usage of 'like'

A has an SV agreement problem. Should be ‘which are’ not ‘which is’.
B has a double verb
C has a double verb too and ‘due to’ is the wrong phrase.
D SV agreement problem. Should be ‘Their markets’ not ‘market.
E right answer.

Re: Maris, a fund manager from Europe [#permalink]
Hi Experts,

Which modifies the noun just before it. (As per Manhattan SC guide 8, page 90 para 2)

So that makes using 'are' wrong here or am I missing anything?

Also what is the antecedent for plural pronoun their?

Any help would be much appreciated!

Can someone take pain to explain why choice E is correct and choice B is not? Only difference I see in both the options is the use of "who" in E.
