UBS (internal note)

In an internal note sent to staff last Friday, UBS focused on the safety of staff and business continuity.

«Your ongoing safety and security remain our paramount concern,» said a note read by finews.asia. «To this end, we would like to remind you to continue to carefully monitor news reports for notifications of transport delays and disruption in Hong Kong. Please make appropriate decisions to avoid putting yourself at risk.»

The bank stressed that it continues to be «business as usual» but told employees to make alternative working arrangements, where necessary.

A spokesperson for the bank declined to comment on the matter or the note.
