<p>For China regulator, the challenge is to keep the economic ship steady while avoiding creating asset market bubble such as real estate sector. Pan Gongsheng, deputy governor at the PBOC, said last week the central bank would focus on improving the macro-prudential monitoring, evaluating, and alerting systems in key areas including real estate financing.</p>
<p>We believe PBOC liquidity policy object towards real estate is adjusting from a reasonably hands-off approach in H1 to allow the property to support growth to mixed goals: curbing financial risks (developer debt/fast-rising land prices) and still allowing a property to support growth (given macro risks).</p>
<p>There are signs of a more stringent real estate financial regime in Q4 as regulators are seeking more transparency from property developers, calling for more details about current debts, to rein in borrowing costs and quell broader financial impacts.</p>

<p>Stories appeared Thursday in China talking about (and showing a picture of) a purported letter from <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/evergrande-real-estate-group-limited" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:479:1" rel="noopener">Evergrande Real Estate Group (3333 HK)</a> to the Guangdong government dated 24 August asking for assistance in restructuring. The letter is reported to have said that its cashflow would be endangered because of a need to repay RMB 130 billion to strategic investors by end January 2021 if Evergrande did not achieve a backdoor listing of its principal mainland subsidiary Hengda Real Estate (which it has been trying to do for three years by injecting Hengda into Shenzhen-listed Shenzhen Special Economic Zone Real Estate &amp; Properties Group Co.
