☆ It's so tough to pay cash in China that the government had to fine a KFC for not accepting banknotes
  + stars: | 2024-05-21 | by ( Matthew Loh | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +4 min
China has mandated that local businesses leave the door open for cash payments as it tries to attract foreign investment and tourism after the pandemic. AdvertisementHungry for foreign business, China has rushed to bridge the gap. Major payment platforms Alipay and WePay started allowing visitors to link their international bank cards to their Chinese accounts. It's illegal in China to reject cash for purchases, and the central government's crackdown has intensified in the last several years. Investor relations for Yum China, which operates KFC in China, did not immediately respond to a request for comment sent by Business Insider.

REUTERS/Aly Song/File Photo Acquire Licensing RightsSHANGHAI, Aug 16 (Reuters) - Anxious Chinese retail investors are bombarding listed companies with questions about their exposure to Zhongrong International Trust Co after missed payments by the trust company triggered fears of contagion across the country's financial system. Zhongrong managed assets worth 785.7 billion yuan ($107.69 billion) at the end of 2022, out of which 629.3 billion yuan were linked to trust products, according to its latest annual report. Its missed payments had added to stress in the financial sector from the country's worsening property crisis. One investor on Wednesday asked Shanghai-listed New China Life Insurance Company (601336.SS) - which owned 14 billion yuan ($1.92 billion) of products from Zhongrong at the end of last year - whether there was a risk of missed payments.

☆ China's Fosun to raise $561 million from mining sale stake as part of asset selldown
  + stars: | 2022-11-06 | by ( ) www.reuters.com   time to read: +1 min
Nov 7 (Reuters) - China's Fosun International Ltd (0656.HK) said on Monday it would raise $561 million by selling part of its shares in Zhaojin Mining Industry Co (1818.HK) as part of its ongoing string of asset sell-downs. The company, through one of its units, is offloading 654.1 million Zhaojin Mining shares for HK$6.72 each, a 1.8% discount from the closing price on Nov. 4. Fosun had owned about 22.85% of Zhaojin Mining's shares and will retain a 2.85% stake in the Hong Kong listed company. The transaction announced on Monday is the second time Fosun has sold Zhaojin stock and has raised $663.73 million from both deals. Fosun, controlled by billionaire entrepreneur Guo Guangchang, was once one of China's most aggressive dealmakers overseas, buying high-profile assets including resort brand Club Med.
☆ Moody's cuts Fosun International's credit rating, raises concerns over asset sales

BEIJING/HONG KONG, Oct 25 (Reuters) - Global credit rating agency Moody's downgraded Fosun International Ltd (0656.HK) by one notch on Tuesday and revised its outlook to "negative" from "ratings under review" amid concerns over the firm's accelerated asset sales. Fosun and its units had earlier cut stakes in firms such as New China Life Insurance (601336.SS) and Shanghai Yuyuan Tourist Mart Group (600655.SS). Fosun, controlled by billionaire entrepreneur Guo Guangchang, was once one of China's most aggressive dealmakers overseas, buying high-profile assets including resort brand Club Med. Fosun's cash on hand at the holding company level is insufficient to cover its short-term debt maturing over the next 12 months, Moody's added. Fosun also expects to gradually repay the outstanding senior notes and increase borrowings from banks, the report said.
☆ Moody's cuts Fosun International's rating, revises outlook to 'negative'

BEIJING/HONG KONG, Oct 25 (Reuters) - Global rating agency Moody's downgraded Fosun International Limited (0656.HK) by one notch on Tuesday and revised its outlook to 'negative' from 'ratings under review', after the firm divested more assets to ease liquidity and debt burdens. "Moody's expects Fosun to face difficulties in refinancing its sizable short-term debt in public bond markets, both onshore and offshore, given the current weak market sentiment," the rating agency said. Fosun's cash on hand at the holding company level is insufficient to cover its short-term debt maturing over the next 12 months, Moody's said. Fosun's management also plans to gradually repay the outstanding senior notes and increase borrowings from banks, the report said. The company did not make any comments on the Bloomberg story or the Citigroup report in response to queries from Reuters.
