Eversheds and Clifford Chance (CC) have taken lead roles on the RMB4.3bn (£427m) ‘dim sum’ bond issuance by property developer New World China Land Limited (NCWL).

NCWL initially issued RMB2.8bn (£279m) worth of so-called dim sum bonds but re-opened the issuance due to high demand, selling a further RMB1.5bn at a premium, making it the largest-ever dim sum bond from a property developer.
