With regulators warning that its $305 billion of liabilities, which is 2 per cent of China's GDP, could spark broader risks to the country's financial system if not stabilised.

He added that Evergrande is due to pay $83.5 million interest on 23rd September for its March 2022 bond. It has another $47.5 million interest payment due on 29th September for March 2024 notes. Both bonds would default if Evergrande fails to settle the interest within 30 days of the scheduled payment dates.

In any default scenario, Evergrande will need to restructure the bonds but analysts expect a low recovery ratio for investors.
