海航表示其流動性無憂

HNA Holdings Group has dismissed concerns about the group’s liquidity but admitted to end-of- the-year tightness, as Chinese banks eke out the remainder of their lending quotas.

中國海航集團(HNA Group)駁斥了外界對於其流動性的擔憂，但也承認年底有一點緊張，因爲中國的銀行在節省它們能放貸的額度。

The Chinese airlines-to- finance conglomerate has mounted a rapid international expansion over the past few years, transforming it into one of China’s most visible companies. Its financial health came under scrutiny in 2017 after Chinese regulators moved against private companies moving money out of China.

這家旗下涵蓋航空運輸業務和金融業務的集團企業過去幾年在國際上快速擴張，成爲中國最引人矚目的公司之一。2017年，在中國監管機構採取措施防止民營公司將資金轉移出境之後，海航的財務健康備受關注。

In recent weeks HNA has extended the payment period for a loan from its Swiss entity, Gategroup, to another affiliate and has delayed payments to aircraft lessors, raising concerns about the group’s liquidity.

最近幾周， 海航延長了旗下瑞士實體Gategroup對其另一家子公司的一筆貸款的償還期限，並推遲償付飛機租賃費用，這引發了外界對該集團流動性的擔憂。
