Halford noted that China's commercial real estate sector "clearly has been problematic," but said that GDP in the country is forecast to bounce back around 5% within the next two to three years.

"China remains both a blessing and a curse for Standard, with the country's faltering economic recovery weighing heavily on these results," he said.
