In the crisis surrounding Chinese real estate group Evergrande, Beijing’s leadership is showing signs of easing tensions and sending state-owned companies to the rescue. The state-controlled Shanghai Pudong Development Bank announced a ¥5 billion (€690 million) bond for construction projects on Tuesday. Experts expected other financial institutions to follow suit, putting real estate financing on a broader footing. The government also made efforts to calm the markets at the communications level.
