BANK accounts related to HNA Group Co were temporarily frozen after one of its lenders concluded that the collateral being put up by a group unit was being used for multiple borrowings, according to people with knowledge of the matter.
Ningbo Commerce Bank lent 450 million yuan (S$93 million) to HNA Technology Group Co, backed by 70 million shares of Shanghai-listed unit Tianjin Tianhai Investment Co, said two of the sources, who asked not to be named discussing a private matter. After determining that those shares were pledged to another creditor, Ningbo Commerce sought to freeze related bank accounts, the sources said. A representative for Ningbo Commerce declined to comment.
