STRUGGLING Chinese developer Agile Property Holdings Ltd, whose billionaire founder was detained last month, said on Thursday that one of its executives had disappeared as it announced fresh plans for a life-saving capital increase.
The company, saddled with debt and slumping margins amid China's economic slowdown, said that it now planned a rights issue to raise HK$1.65 billion (S$271 million), much less than the HK$2.79 billion it proposed to raise in September.
