Asked if concerns over Evergrande were representative of the wider real estate sector in China, Darby said the firm is a "really isolated" case. "I think represents sort of the older style of managing a business," the strategist said. "There're a large number now of companies in China which are not debt-incumbered at all and indeed many of the state-owned or state-related property companies in China don't have much debt at all."

"I think the underlying property sales in China have been extraordinarily robust in the first six months after Covid-19 struck," Darby said, adding that the sector's strength has served as "insulation" for the Chinese economy.
