Country Garden Holdings Co. Ltd. (HKSE - 2007.HK) - Negative News With Negligible Impact

On 5 April 2017, South China Morning Post reported Country Garden Holdings, whose Forest City project in Malaysia is the biggest overseas project by a Chinese property developer, will refund money to mainland investors caught up in Beijing’s escalating crackdown on capital outflows. 

The move is the latest consequence arising from Beijing’s tighter policy on capital controls, with most Chinese developers engaged in selling overseas properties now forced to shift their focus from mainland buyers to other countries.

the most on Hong Kong’s exchange.


In December 2016, Muddy Waters alleged that Huishan had been overstating its spending on its cow farms by as much as 1.6 billion yuan to "support the company's income statement."

The report also alleged that the company made an unannounced transfer of a subsidiary that owned at least four cow farms to an undisclosed related party and Muddy Waters concluded that Chairman Yang controls the subsidiary and farms.
