Majority of US firms in Hong Kong concerned about security law: Amcham survey

HONG KONG: A majority of US companies in Hong Kong surveyed by the American Chamber of Commerce are concerned about the sweeping new national security law in the global financial hub, with a third looking to move assets or business longer-term.

About half were concerned about the city's status as a global finance centre and the erosion of the high degree of autonomy it was promised 23 years ago.
