LONDON- HSBC has extended restrictions on staff travelling to Hong Kong until March 16 amid the ongoing coronavirus epidemic, according to a memo seen by Reuters on Monday.
The bank also said it is maintaining an outright ban on all travel to mainland China.
HSBC said exceptions to the Hong Kong travel ban would require approval from a senior manager.
A spokesman for the bank declined to comment.
