HSBC bank to axe 500 jobs
Sep 26 2008
About 500 UK jobs are being axed at HSBC as part of a worldwide cull within its investment banking division.
The UK's biggest bank is cutting about 1,100 posts across its global banking and markets division - 4% of the operation's total workforce - as it comes under pressure amid the credit crisis.
UK staff affected are largely based in HSBC's Canary Wharf office in London, where the division is headquartered.
