Profit Concept Finance Limited has filed a winding-up petition in the Hong Kong High Court against Fortune Choice Development Limited, developer of the Tuen Mun residential project Ocean Camino. The High Court has scheduled the petition for mention on November 11, 2026, and the outcome affects buyers and creditors tied to the project.
Why it matters
The petition follows an unsuccessful injunction bid and a dismissed stay of execution, and Justice Wong Ming-fung ruled that letting the petition proceed served the public interest. Fortune Choice operates under the already wound-up China Evergrande Group, and the alleged debts to a finance firm, an estate agency and a bank show how mortgage-backed sales can leave developers exposed when funding dries up.
The petition is backed by a claim of more than HK$170 million owed to Profit Concept Finance, set against roughly HK$79 million in available funds the company is said to hold. Separately alleged obligations include about HK$230 million to an estate agency and HK$120 million to a bank, all as reported allegations rather than court findings.
The players
Profit Concept Finance Limited
A finance company that provided mortgage financing for Ocean Camino buyers and filed the winding-up petition against its developer.
Fortune Choice Development Limited
The developer of the Ocean Camino residential project in Tuen Mun, operating under the already wound-up China Evergrande Group.
China Evergrande Group
A major Chinese property developer whose wind-up has left its Hong Kong project subsidiaries facing creditor claims.
Wong Ming-fung
A High Court Special Duties Judge in Hong Kong who dismissed the developer's stay application and ruled the petition should proceed.
The details
Profit Concept Finance filed the petition after Evergrande and its subsidiary Tin Ji Holdings agreed in April 2019 to provide mortgage financing through Profit Concept for buyers of Ocean Camino units. Mortgage-backed sales helped move additional units, which tied the developer's cash position to the financing arrangements. High Court Special Duties Judge Wong Ming-fung dismissed Fortune Choice's bid for a stay of execution and found it had no reasonable prospect of a successful appeal.
Timeline
April 2019: Evergrande and Tin Ji Holdings agreed to provide mortgage financing for Ocean Camino buyers.
November 11, 2026, 10:00am: The High Court scheduled the winding-up petition for mention.
Market Landscape
The filing extends the fallout of China Evergrande Group's wind-up into a Hong Kong project company still operating under its umbrella. It shows how developer-linked mortgage schemes can leave project companies exposed to creditor claims long after the parent group has been wound up.
Operators who extend credit to or rely on property developers should check the exposure of any project company tied to a wound-up parent group. Creditors and vendors should review collection timelines and secured positions ahead of the November 11 mention, with questions routed to qualified counsel.
The takeaway
Developer-linked financing can leave a project company exposed to creditor claims even after its parent group is wound up, so creditors should map their exposure now. Put the November 11, 2026 High Court mention on the calendar and track the outcome, with any legal decisions referred to qualified counsel.
What happens next
The High Court will hear the winding-up petition for mention on November 11, 2026, at 10:00am.
