Banks’ Job Cuts Around the World
Some interesting stuff i came across yesterday: Banks’ Job Cuts around the world since July 2007.

I should be proud that HSBC has only cut less than 1 percent positions. Having said that, in China it has slow down quite a bit in recruiting new people, compare to about 100 new people a month at the beginning of this year.
Of course, this only includes high profile annoucements around the world. Banks in Bolivia, Kyrgyzstan and alike are not included.
