  + stars: | 2023-06-08 | by ( ) www.reuters.com   time to read: +1 min
June 7 (Reuters) - Standard Chartered (STAN.L) is starting to lay off employees across Singapore, London, and Hong Kong hubs as part of an existing plan to cut costs by more than $1 billion through 2024, Bloomberg News reported on Wednesday. The British bank had previously said that it aims savings of $1.3 billion under a cost-efficiency program. "It is part of normal business activity to review our role requirements on an ongoing basis across the bank," a spokesperson for the British lender told Reuters in an emailed statement. Goldman Sachs is expected to reduce just under 250 jobs in the coming weeks, while JPMorgan Chase & Co (JPM.N) is cutting about 500 employees, Reuters reported in May.

DUBAI, March 26 (Reuters) - Standard Chartered (STAN.L) plans to sell its Jordanian business to Arab Jordan Investment Bank (AJIB) (AJIB.AM), the two parties said on Sunday, as the emerging markets-focused lender presses ahead with plans to exit seven markets in Africa and the Middle East. All Standard Chartered Bank employees in Jordan will be transferred to AJIB, it said an emailed statement. AJIB said the purchase falls within the Jordanian lender's strategy to grow its market share in the country, which continues to grow after it acquired HSBC's banking business in Jordan in 2014 and National Bank of Kuwait's banking business in Jordan in 2022. Standard Chartered in April 2022 said it plans to leave seven markets, consisting of Angola, Cameroon, Gambia, Jordan, Lebanon, Sierra Leone and Zimbabwe.
