HONG KONG -- HSBC Holdings has agreed to share documents with lawyers for Huawei Technologies executive Meng Wanzhou as she fights deportation from Canada to the U.S.

Meng's lawyers in February unsuccessfully petitioned a court in the U.K., where HSBC is based, to force the bank to release documents for Meng's defense. They then turned to Hong Kong courts for help last month.
