Japan loses key finance roles to Hong Kong





Banks and fund houses are relocating some business lines and key individuals to Hong Kong from Japan to control costs in a weakening global market.


"This is something we have seen, and the trend is mostly due to cost controls and the dominance of Japanese brokers in that market that pose a significant challenge for international firms to break in," said Nick Lambe, a managing director at headhunting firm Morgan McKinley.


Lambe said the transfers tended to be a result of the consolidation of roles and involve mainly senior business heads and certain trading jobs.
