Citic Trust Co, a unit of China's biggest State-owned investment company, missed a biannual payment to investors in one of its products after a steel company missed making interest payments on an underlying loan.
A sustained fall in steel prices and losses incurred by Yichang Three Gorges Quantong Coated and Galvanized Plate Co caused the company to miss 74.6 million yuan ($12 million) in interest payments, according to a statement on Citic Trust's website on Friday.
As a result, Citic Trust won't be able to pay investors the latest installment in a trust product payment that was due on Thursday, it said.
