The order by the Hong Kong High Court also is not a remedy for the crisis of confidence haunting China’s financial markets.
Markets in both Hong Kong and Shanghai fell Tuesday while share prices of property developers sank.
State-owned Chinese banks and other domestic entities own most of the debt owed by Chinese property developers.
David Goodman, director of the University of Sydney’s China Studies Center, said he thinks China’s property debt burdens are unlikely to precipitate a major financial crisis.
“The fact of the matter is that the Chinese financial system is not as open or as marketized (as in the United States),” he said.
