Chinese Real Estate Developer Shimao Group Seeks Approval from Offshore Investors to Restructure US$11.7 Billion Debt Amidst Challenges

Quick Summary:

The Shanghai-based firm is seeking approval from offshore creditors for a restructuring plan, according to a filing made to the Hong Kong stock exchange late on Monday, as part of its latest efforts to avoid liquidation.

It missed the interest and principal repayments for a dollar bond in July 2022 and has been in default for its entire US$11.7 billion offshore debt since then.

The developer said that its latest proposal will help it improve its capital structure and enable it to better manage its operations and deliver long-term value for stakeholders.
