Chinese authorities are finalizing the cleanup of the Evergrande real estate empire, which collapsed with approximately $300 billion in liabilities. A court in Guangzhou has accepted a bankruptcy liquidation case against Evergrande's mainland unit, following the sentencing of its founder, Hui Kan Yan, to life in prison for financial crimes. The process of unwinding Evergrande's debts is expected to be lengthy due to differing legal systems between Hong Kong and mainland China, and creditors may recover only a fraction of what they are owed.
