Evergrande is scrambling to raise funds to pay its many lenders and suppliers and investors, with regulators warning its $305bn of liabilities could spark broader risks to the country’s financial system if not stabilised. Global Times is a nationalistic tabloid published by the Communist Party’s People’s Daily. Its views do not necessarily reflect the official thinking of policymakers.
Evergrande is due to pay $83.5m interest on September 23 for its March 2022 bond. It has another $47.5m interest payment due on September 29 for the March 2024 notes. The bonds would default if Evergrande fails to pay the interest within 30 days.
