China's Kaisa kicks off US$12bil debt restructuring after missing pay date


HONG KONG: Chinese property developer Kaisa Group Holdings Ltd has started work on restructuring its offshore debt worth $12 billion, a source with direct knowledge of the matter said on Thursday, after missing a bond payment deadline this week.

Kaisa, China's largest holder of offshore debt among developers after China Evergrande Group, did not repay $400 million of bonds that matured on Tuesday, triggering cross-default provision on all its offshore bonds and prompting a downgrade to "restricted default" by Fitch Ratings.
