Guangzhou R&F Properties’ dollar bonds fell over 7 points after its funds were insufficient to buy back its $725mn 5.75% bond due January 13, 2022 because its asset sales did not happen as planned. R&F said that in a filing late on Wednesday that the funds available to settle its tender offer for an offshore bond were materially less than the $300mn it previously expected, due to continued volatility in the property sector.
