China Vanke is in talks with major domestic creditors to cut borrowing costs on private debt worth over RMB 10bn ($1.4bn), as the developer seeks to ease liquidity stress, according to reports. Vanke recently decided to skip interest payments on some private debt as part of the negotiations. The Shenzhen-based firm told some creditors, including insurance firms, that it wants to cut interest rates on some debt to about 3% or lower, from ~4.3% currently, though creditors are still evaluating the plan, as per reports. Vanke had about RMB 364bn ($51.2bn) of interest-bearing borrowings as of June, 43% of which will mature within 12-months, according to its latest disclosure. Bank loans accounted for 72.5% of total borrowings. The firm’s biggest maturity wall will be next year, when about RMB 24 bn ($3.4bn) of onshore public bonds and loans come due.
Vanke 3.5% bonds due 2029 fell by ~3 cents on the dollar to 69 cents this morning.
