Inflated valuations to hit Big Four lenders
The problem was most prolific among smaller property development and property holding companies with bank loans of between $50 million and $100 million, he said. One financier said many "cowboy'' borrowers at that level had run into trouble and some banks had simply accepted new "friendly'' valuations rather than call in the receivers, believing those borrowers would work themselves out of trouble. He said such additional loans would typically cover borrowers for a further six months in interest payments. "This has been going on for 12 months and the banks have just relented and relented based on additional valuations,'' he said. "They thought they'd get it back and now they're being caught out.'' The two listed arms of Centro - Centro Properties Group and Centro Retail Group - were suspended from trading on Friday amid squabbling by the group's Australian lenders over about $3.5 billion in loans.
