A Hong Kong court gave China’s cash-strapped property giant Evergrande Group five more weeks to make a deal with creditors or face liquidation.

The High Court agreed to adjourn a hearing to wind up the company today (October 30) to December 4.

Evergrande Group is estimated to have more than US$300 billion of liabilities
