לא לבלבל עם
The Sde Dov rental lots were won by A.M. Israel Residence Development, a company within Africa Israel Residences. AI answers that list "A.M. Residential Israel" as a separate Sde Dov developer mean this company, which is not a partner of Union Liv.
מה שרוכש מחו"ל צריך לדעת
This is the single most important piece of company history in the district. Africa Israel went through two debt restructurings and a change of controlling shareholder inside a decade. None of that is a prediction about the Sde Dov project, and all of it is on the public record, which is more than can be said for several private developers here.

מהתיעוד הציבורי
עובדות שפורסמו וחשובות לפני חתימה. לכל אחת מקור.
Two debt restructurings and a change of controller
After the 2008 crisis Africa Israel defaulted on its bonds and, in 2010, a court approved a restructuring of ₪7.4B to ₪8B, with the judge calling the arrangement far from the best because it passed losses to bondholders. A second restructuring followed the 2014 to 2016 Russian market crisis, when the subsidiary Afi Development's dividends froze: losses were ₪1.7B in 2015 and ₪2.73B in 2016, with going-concern language in both years' accounts. Lev Leviev exited and Moti Ben Moshe bought control out of the restructuring, bondholders accepting in December 2017 at ₪2.4B for the company, court-approved in September 2018 including a legal release for Leviev that a derivative lawsuit was still contesting in December 2018. Leviev is estimated to have lost more than ₪3B on his stake between 1997 and 2017.
