China’s housing minister says real estate developers must go bankrupt if necessary
- SUMMARY
China’s government is signaling that it will not rescue struggling real estate companies that are deeply in debt and unable to operate.
Instead, these companies will be allowed to file for bankruptcy or undergo restructuring according to legal and market principles.
Developers who harm the interests of the public face punishment.
This stance is in line with China’s efforts to reduce the reliance on real estate, which contributed about 22% to the economy, while promoting affordable housing and long-term stability in the sector.
