AN investment holding company controlled by Hong Kong tycoon Li Ka-shing's younger son Richard Li is veering closer to the delisting threshold on the Singapore Exchange (SGX) after months of steady share buybacks, fuelling speculation about what its next move could be.

Mainboard-listed Pacific Century Regional Developments (PCRD) leapt to its highest level in more than a decade on Wednesday, jumping four cents or 9.9 per cent to S$0.445 on 11.6 million shares traded.
