8:19 am
week off to defend files to make interest and principal payments. the people come into it online saying that the food was having cash flow problems, but the company denied those claims and says those printing room is online criminals. us would help us break this soul down. let's see a garcia headed or is the chief economist the asia pacific at the french investment bank, the texas. she joins us live from ty, thank you very much for being on the 0. well, get to those purchase in just a moment, but can we just go back to with this began a few years ago when the central government could exist. borrowing to try and slow the rise and how surprises that i mean, effectively cut off a major source of funding for property developers. was that a bad move in hon size? well, it depends on the over 50. if you'd be able to to pause, which i think it was to reduce the size of this bloated being below the real estate sector in china. because it was about sustainable that was it right?
8:20 am
well, perhaps not as aggressively perhaps not as drastically, but it has to be done. the problem is that the consequences of such symbol biome is, will have be lower groups. and this comes on a couple, 3 years of seo cobit and very disenchanted consumers. so it's more more the timing that the actual investors might view that, that now we're kind of of realizing how bro try not to exceed in terms of those. um this year would be perhaps 5 percent, but next year would be worse because we have a very large basic issue. things do that real. i mean you spoke about disaffected people. we saw those protesters outside to one of the friends that is struggling at this point. in time, you know what other, it's obvious, you know, if it's not just if a grand how, how badly is this affecting other property developers and how widespread is the
8:21 am
problem as well. even before we've heard about the garden, countrified, the many ways the largest in the brain, china, you know, right, that it has just hobby of the dead on the ground. that because it's much less leverage. but he's a humongous thing for 254 companies. so you know it's email is so easy, so way this is tammy, and by the way, between ever brand it on uh, kinda find out what happens very many poles uh by a smaller private and this is key, private developers. so now what's happening, you said it is only this thing, you don't developers that are buying non 84 percent of the lot useful by said on the very 1st. so it's like to re mastered a section of a sector that was reading through the private sector in china. so this is what's happening. i've seen some point households with buy um, basically only from state on developers. and oh,
8:22 am
and that the risk is much less income, so i'm fitness units or defaults, as you mentioned. right. well what impact is this having on the why? the economy in china, the real estate sector is between 330 to 40 percent of the economy. do you think about every sick but the ends on it? so it is my sense of what the fix. i said investment. she's growing new to double digit nick. i think double digit for already given to what all works and i've done it and it was so hot that must have an impact on, on, on trying to throw those out. what is going to happen from here? things going to continue to get worse to me. i would say that some people are calling for crisis. i'm not that i'm not on that account because china looks much more than depend on the us. stop prime prices pain or any of that example of the verse of the bible 3 and say about this is more slow motion. so yes
8:23 am
. what it does is it supposed to get worse? slowly spend any empty, get better once the supply of housing has disappeared. it's going to take many years. okay, thank you so much for your time in and your inside. that is. let's see. it gets here headed, our chief economist for asian pacific, at the french investment bank that takes us, thank you for the ultimate challenge of all street us. the best in coats has been charged with giving false evidence to a pile of entry inquiry into corruption. he is said to stand trial in october for his government's alleged roll and offering 5 is 2 of russian invest in the corruption scandal. 2 years ago caused his boost government to collapse before he returned to pelham. he says the allegations of false california is preparing for our can. hillary, a powerful store most of the pacific coast of mexico is probably the 1st if a tropical storm watch in southern california crews, south of los angeles covering
