HSBC Holdings decided on Sunday to keep its headquarters in Britain, rejecting the option of shifting its centre of gravity back to its main profit-generating centre Hong Kong after a 10-month review.
The unanimous decision by HSBC's board gives a boost to London's status as a global financial centre, which since the financial crisis of 2008-09 has faced challenges from tougher regulation and rising costs.
