Latest from Moody's on: China property sector outlook stable, but protracted regulatory controls pose downside risk
In brief:
- outlook for the residential property sector in China (A1 stable) is stable through 2018
- protracted and tight government controls will continue to pressure business conditions for property developers
- prices in major Chinese cities will be constrained by the government's controls on the selling prices for new homes
- Nonetheless, a material price correction is unlikely, because of the healthy levels of inventory and strong mass market demand
