Highlights: China: the boss of the real estate giant Evergrande placed under house arrest. After the arrest of executives of the Chinese developer in mid-September, we learn this Wednesday, September 27, 2023 by the Bloomberg agency. Xu Jiayin had a fortune of nearly 43 billion euros in 2017. He has nothing left today, or almost nothing. A vertiginous fall in the image of that of the group which has led to a crisis never before seen on the Chinese real estate market.

With our correspondent in Beijing, Stéphane Lagarde
China's richest former man, a member of the Chinese Communist Party and a former delegate of the Chinese People's Consultative Conference, is no longer free to move. Xu Jiayin had a fortune of nearly 43 billion euros in 2017. He has nothing left today, or almost nothing. A vertiginous fall in the image of that of the group which has led to a crisis never before seen on the Chinese real estate market.
Aged 64, Xu Jiayin, also known as Hui Ka Yan in Cantonese, was arrested earlier this month, according to Bloomberg sources. According to the Code of Criminal Procedure in China, house arrest can last six months, recalls the Cantonese channel TVB on Wednesday, September 27.
