China Vanke’s dollar bonds climbed higher by over 7 points amid reports that the Shenzhen municipal government is drafting a rescue package worth ~RMB 80b ($11.58bn) for the developer. The plan is said to align with the central government’s directives to adopt a “no default” approach to prevent further contagion in the property sector. While still in preliminary stages, the report indicated that a potential RMB 20b ($2.9bn) share placement could take place to inject liquidity, although the pricing and timing remain undisclosed. The government support follows recent guidance from the SASAC aimed at stabilizing state-backed developers. Vanke currently has a massive $50bn in interest-bearing liabilities.
