Evergrande liquidation would be keenly watched

Hong Kong court puts off Evergrande's hearing on debt restructuring to Jan

A Hong Kong court postponed until Jan. 29 a court hearing scheduled for Monday on troubled Chinese property developer Evergrande's winding-up petition. Evergrande is trying to win support from its creditors for a plan to restructure more than $300 billion in debt to stave off liquidation. The company's lawyer told the court it was requesting an adjournment to refine its new debt restructuring plan.
