Evergrande's fate hinges on recognition of China authorities


SYDNEY/HONG KONG: Any liquidation of property giant Evergrande hinges on Chinese authorities recognising the ruling of a Hong Kong court, in a decision that could also affect the city's standing as a global financial centre, legal practitioners said.

A Hong Kong court on Monday ordered China Evergrande Group, the world’s most indebted developer with nearly $300 billion worth of liabilities, to be liquidated after around 18 months of failed negotiations with offshore creditors.
