Due to the reform and liberalization in 1980’s, Deng Xiaoping started to define real estate as commodity in China. In 1987, Shenzhen conducted the first public land auction, symbolizing the official commercialization of Chinese real estate. Vanke, one year later, entered the real estate industry. After more than 20 years, it has become the largest residential developer in China, and is known as the “city real estate and service provider”. From Vanke, we can see the epitome of development of all Chinese real estate companies. The economic downturn and the changing world pattern are the major concerns for Chinese real estate developers in the recent years. These concerns are reflected by Vanke, which is the reason why I choose Vanke for Master Final Work equity research. This report adopts the research report format recommended by the CFA Institute. The full text includes 8 parts including Research Snapshot, Business Description and Management and Corporate Governance. It analyzes finance and management of Vanke in the past four years and forecasts the operations for the next five years. Generally, Vanke's operational development is stable. Persisting in high asset turnover strategy, it has about 20% ROE on the period analyzed. In terms of leverage, in the past two years, Vanke has increased its debt level from 16.36% to 17.09%.

We note that short-seller Citron Research alleged Evergrande of fraud in 2012, but the claims were vigorously refuted and Evergrande went to record over 40% bottomline growth in FY13. However, as the China residential property market starts to slow down alongside the Last close: HKD 3.08 economy, exacerbated by tight credit and home ownership restrictions, we think Target Price: HKD 2.50 (-23%) Evergrande, as the largest and most indebted, will be most at risk.

  • Demystifying Chinese Investment in Australia March 2014
    ISSN 2203-2029 25/05/2015 CHINA STUDIES CENTRE Demystifying Chinese Investment in Australia Featuring commercial real estate analysis by Knight Frank May 2015 Update kpmg.com.au 1 Demystifying Chinese Investment in Australia May 2015 Update Demystifying Chinese Investment in Australia May 2015 Update 2 About our reports KPMG and The University of Sydney formed a strategic relationship to publish research and insights on doing business with Chinese investors. Our first report was launched in September 2011, with this representing the tenth Demystifying Chinese Investment report in our series. This report examines Chinese investment in Australia for the calendar year 2014. Given the unprecedented increase in commercial real estate investment during this time, we have partnered with leading global real estate advisory and agency firm, Knight Frank, to provide a more detailed account of Chinese commercial real estate investment activity in Australia. The catalyst for our report series is the historic lack of detailed factual information about the real nature and distribution of China’s outbound direct investment (ODI) in Australia. Without this information, there is disinformation and speculation. Our reports seek to set the record straight and debunk the myths associated with Chinese investment in this country. Methodology The dataset is compiled jointly by KPMG and The University of Sydney Business School and covers investments into Australia made by entities from the People’s Republic of China through M&A, joint venture and greenfield projects. The dataset also tracks Chinese investment by subsidiaries or special purpose vehicles in Hong Kong, Singapore and other locations. The data, however, does not include portfolio investments such as the purchase of stocks and bonds, which does not result in foreign management, ownership or legal control.
