    LDK Solar overexpanded amid an industry downturn and carried high debt. It entered bankruptcy reorganization in 2015, with bank claims of about RMB 27.1 billion and a recovery rate of only about 14.75%; 12 creditor banks collectively opposed the plan, but the court still approved it by force. Banks were expected to lose about RMB 23 billion; in 2018 its assets were acquired for RMB 1.795 billion.
