The stock is still down more than 60 per cent in the year to date.<\/p>\n<p>Country Garden, once considered one of the Chinese developers least likely to default, has struggled to meet recent repayment obligations. It missed interest payments of $22.5mn on two $500mn international bonds about a month ago, triggering a broad sell-off in shares of property groups already under pressure from widespread defaults.<\/p>\n<p>Developer stocks listed in Hong Kong rose as much as 10.5 per cent on Monday following action by Chinese authorities to lower downpayment requirements nationwide for first-time and second-time homebuyers.<\/p>\n<p>The pace of mortgage rule easing to encourage homebuyers has picked up markedly in recent weeks after years of a punishing crackdown on excess leverage in the sector. Major cities including Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen lowered minimum mortgage interest rates for first-time homebuyers last week.<\/p>\n<p>Ting Lu, an analyst at Nomura, said while the recent easing marked a \u201csignificant step in stimulating the property sector\u201d, these measures were \u201cstill not enough\u201d to pull it out of a protracted liquidity crisis.<\/p>\n<p>Dealogic data shows Chinese developers face a $38bn wall of renminbi and dollar bond payments coming due over the next four months, while Fitch Ratings warned last week that annual new home sales in China could fall by as much as 15 per cent.<\/p>\n<p>The rating agency also warned that the situation at Country Garden \u201cmay exacerbate weakness in [Chinese] homebuyers\u2019 sentiment\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Country Garden, which alone had liabilities of about Rmb1.36tn as of the end of the first half of 2023, faces more repayment pressure this week. The grace period for the dollar bond payments it missed a month ago is set to expire on Wednesday.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Read the full article <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ft.com\/content\/88f4fd3f-75b2-4af5-94ee-b1550826f43d\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Receive free Country Garden Holdings Co Ltd updates We\u2019ll send you a myFT Daily Digest email rounding up the latest Country Garden Holdings Co Ltd news every morning.
