Core Viewpoint - The article discusses the challenges faced by private real estate companies in China regarding bond extensions and the effectiveness of credit enhancement measures, highlighting that many of these measures have become ineffective due to various internal and external factors [1][3][12]. Group 1: Credit Enhancement Measures - Many private real estate companies have extended bonds and provided credit enhancement measures to avoid defaults from 2022 to 2024, but some of these measures have become ineffective due to changes in the external environment and internal procedural issues [1][3]. - An example includes a bond investment where the issuer provided a 200 million yuan receivable and equity in a real estate project as credit enhancement, which initially seemed sufficient to cover the bond balance [2][5]. - However, the receivable was already pledged for another loan, and the equity was also encumbered, leaving bondholders in a precarious position as they were third in line for any recovery [3][9]. Group 2: Legal and Procedural Issues - There is a lack of follow-up legal procedures that render credit enhancement assets effectively invalid, as agreements made during bond extensions or restructuring often lack enforceability [16][18]. - Investors often do not conduct thorough due diligence on credit enhancement assets due to time constraints and a focus on specific terms, leading to a lack of awareness about the true status of these assets [6][24]. - The article emphasizes that many credit enhancement assets are encumbered or frozen, making them unavailable for use in debt recovery, which diminishes their intended purpose [18][27]. Group 3: Investor Challenges - Investors have reported that credit enhancement assets are often not "clean" and are subject to various claims from other creditors, which complicates recovery efforts [12][27]. - The article notes that the majority of credit enhancement assets are in a "failed" state, primarily because bondholders lack priority in the hierarchy of claims against these assets [27]. - The article suggests that investors need to be more proactive in ensuring that credit enhancement measures are legally binding and that they have a clear understanding of the assets being pledged [21][26].

自1979年迄今，伊朗的国家发展战略（或者说国家安全发展 战略）有3条线——明线、暗线、实线。明线是反以，打造阿 拉伯世界领袖地位；暗线是缓和与美欧的关系，以期解除制 裁、发展经济；实线就是发展核能，以便在关键时刻制造出核 武器，使其成为国家安全的柱石。现在看，伊朗的雄心和其能 力并不匹配。 作者：王义伟 封图：东方IC 2025年6月13日开始，以色列战机长途奔袭轰炸伊朗，伊朗以无人机和导弹还击，双方再一次大打 出手。截至笔者撰写此篇稿件，以色列一方占据明显优势，伊朗多处核设施遭到轰炸，伊朗多名军 方高层将领和核科学家被炸死。 美国方面，美国总统特朗普于6月16日提前一天离开正在加拿大举行的七国集团峰会，在白宫召集 国家安全团队讨论以伊冲突。据美国媒体报道，特朗普正考虑一系列选项，包括加入以色列对伊朗 的空袭。特朗普通过社交媒体要求伊朗"无条件投降"。 这一次，伊 朗面对 的形势更加凶险，也再一次凸显了对伊朗国运的终极拷问：核与政权孰轻孰 重，能否兼得。 先回顾一下伊朗政权及其核发展脉络。 1979年，巴列维王朝被推翻，伊朗成立新政权。这个新政权与以美国、以色列为首的西方世界持 续处于对立、对抗、冲突状态， ...
