New World Seeks More Banks to Join Up to $2 Billion Loan

Bloomberg30-05-2025
New World Development Co. is looking for more banks to join an up to HK$15.6 billion ($2 billion) loan backed by its key asset, Victoria Dockside, according to people familiar with the matter, as the cash-strapped company tries to shore up its finances.
Deustche Bank AG, which is arranging the deal, sent invitations this week to some banks that aren't already lenders to the developer, the people said, asking not to be identified discussing private matters. The base size of the three-year facility is HK$4 billion, they added. Proposed terms that the company sent to other banks in March didn't specify a base loan size.

US audit watchdog bars, fines Hong Kong auditor

NEW YORK (Reuters) -The U.S. Public Company Accounting Oversight Board said on Tuesday it had revoked the license of a Hong Kong firm and barred its owner for violating audit rules related to companies operating in China, including Luckin Coffee Inc. The PCAOB said in a statement it had sanctioned Centurion ZD CPA & Co and its owner Chan Kam Fuk and hit them with a civil penalty of $75,000 for violating the board's rules and standards in connection with its audit work for three firms. The auditor failed to properly assess risk and get sufficient audit evidence from Luckin in a 2022 opinion of the firm's 2021 financial reporting, the PCAOB said. The Chinese coffee firm in 2020 had settled accounting fraud charges with the SEC. The firm and Chan failed to use information about the fraud in the subsequent year's audit, PCAOB said. Centurion also violated PCAOB standards in connection with the audit of a second Chinese company and with audit procedures for some subsidiaries of a Malaysian firm, the PCAOB said. Chan and Centurion did not admit or deny the findings. A lawyer for both did not respond immediately to request for comment.
