Chinese banks have committed 1.4 trillion yuan ($196 billion) in loans to support more than 5,000 real estate projects that qualify for a financing support program aimed at reviving the struggling housing sector. The funding was approved under a financing coordination mechanism launched in January, designed to ensure viable projects can secure the finance needed to complete construction and deliver new homes to their owners. A total of 5,391 projects have been selected by local authorities for a whitelist to access this support, Liao Yuanyuan, a senior official at the National Financial Regulatory Administration (NFRA), said at a briefing on Wednesday. In January, the NFRA and the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development (MHURD) established a coordinated financing mechanism for the property sector. Under it, local governments and banks assess individual housing projects, rather than the developers behind them, and approve a whitelist of projects eligible for targeted support.
