BEIJING, Feb 12 (Reuters) - China's property giant Vanke
Co Ltd plans to raise up to 15 billion yuan ($2.2
billion) in a private placement of A-shares that it said will
fund 11 property projects and boost capital reserves.
Vanke plans to sell up to 1.1 billion A-shares, representing
9.46% of its total share capital before the issuance, to up to
35 investors, the company said in a filing to the Shenzhen Stock
Exchange on Sunday.
The share issue will provide new financial support to help
the smooth implementation and timely delivery of its property
projects, it said.
Debt-ladened property developers have added pressure to a
struggling sector and state banks have stepped in to provide
fundraising support to aid a severe housing slump.
