Then the news review. Brexodus fears grow in the City Of London, as leading firms warn thousands of staff may now be relocated. Plus, breathing space. No Arrest Warrant for samsung boss jay y lee. But prosecutors vow to continue the Corruption Investigation without wavering. Welcome to World Business report. Im sally bundock. Well be live in seoul injust a moment. Well get the latest on samsung. But first, this. We start here in london, where fears of a costly brexit exodus of banking jobs are growing. Leading firms are now weighing up moving thousands of staff out of the uk, after Prime Minister theresa may confirmed plans to leave the european Single Market as well as the eu, the so called hard brexit option. So, what have we heard already . On wednesday, the boss of hsbc said hes preparing to move around 1000 of his 5000 london staff to paris. That would mean around 20 of its european revenue leaving the uk, worth several billion dollars. Swiss rival, ubs, also told the bbc that 1000 jobs may go in london as a result of brexit, again around a fifth of its workforce. And according to a report in the handelsblatt newspaper in germany this morning, Goldman Sachs may halve its london workforce, moving 3000 staff to new york and continental europe, a thousand of those to frankfurt. Goldman though says it has yet to make a decision on the matter however, some believe this could be the tip of the iceberg as far as uk financialjob losses. Back in october, consultants oliver wyman warned 75,000 uk jobs are at risk if Financial Companies based here lose the right to operate across europe. Theresa may is addressing the World Economic forum in davos today, she will also be meeting the bosses of some of the big banks including Goldman Sachs and jp morgan for private talks. Yesterday, pierre moscovici, Former French finance minister, now Eu Commissionerfor economic and financial affairs, taxation and customs, spoke to our economics editor kamal ahmed. He denied the eu would try to punish britain for leaving the eu. It is not about punishment. I said that we need to find a balanced and positive agreement. I said we are friends and must work together. They even said so in the European Parliament this morning in davos. But we must be clear that you cannot have all the advantages of being a member of the club when you are out of the club. 0ur british friends will bleed invented clubs. Probably. They can understand that. There you. That is one view. And now for another view. 0livier Vardakoulias is senior economist at the new economics foundation. The plot has thickened. No surprise at all to hear some of the big banks, global banks, who have big operations in london, are now rethinking. Yes. That is because they perceive she has made unattainable pledges. She will go for a hard brexit, exiting the Common Market and the eu and also the common union. What they are afraid of, and rightly so, is basically that this will not guarantee the so called passport writes. Explain those rights for those uninitiated in financial services. Any bank located, or investment bank, located in the country, has the right to do business in any european country, without needing to have an agreement without needing to have an agreement with individual Member States of the eu. That is why, for example, you have Many American Investment Banks based in london. That is because they can do business in whatever european country freely. That will not be the case if the uk does not manage to reach a special agreement for accessing the special european market. These banks will have to negotiate and basically the uk will have to negotiate individually with different Member States. Quite frankly, the easy solution for these banks is to relocate part of their activities on the continent. Not all of them, part of them. It is interesting. When you look at the sentiment from both sides, like donald tusk saying it will be a difficult negotiation process, theresa may saying if they do not get the vote they want they will exit completely. In that situation, what do we see for the future of the City Of London in terms of how it will operate . She implied in her speech that she will change the goalposts in terms of how things go in london, taxing, regulation, so it becomes better on the ground. Yeah. I think there are two things here. Political posturing, if you want. 0n the one hand, you know, the way that theresa may presented that to European Partners is that they will withdraw from the European Court of justice and so on. And then i will try to basically seek Market Access without being part of the eu. And if you do not do what i want, we will move offshore. Basically a tax haven in the uk, that kind of model. She will try to liberalise the Financial Sector even more, at our risk and peril, as the 2008 crisis showed, and replaced the job losses from respectable Bank Activities by attracting things like Hedge Funds Oi attracting things like hedge funds or other financial activities. Now, this is a very risky strategy. Not just because obviously it can trigger different kinds of financial fragility within the system, but it is also bad news for British Working families. Turning the uk into a bank haven will not help those who voted to leave the eu. Very interesting. Thank you for your time today. I am sure i will talk to you again before we leave the eu officially. Thank you for coming in. We will go to south korea next. That is where a growing Corruption Scandal has led to the impeachment of President Park geun hye, and has been threatening to suck in the boss of samsung, jay y lee.
