HSBC says may leave UK

[v8gaz]

Actually, they may be quite keen to leave. I was there when they built the tower at Canary Wharf. Due to corners being cut when they were racing Citibank to complete their respective buildings, I hear that the HSBC tower has an expected lifespan of around 25 years before the concrete starts crumbling. Might be time to go before it all gets very very embarrasing. Perhaps cracks have started to appear.

How stupid would it be for the The Hongkong and Shanghai Banking Corporation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia to move to Hong Kong or Shanghai. Ridiculous.

Hong Kong and Shanghai were very different when the Hong Kong and Shanghai Banking Corporation was formed. They were run by very different people to today.
