TOKYO -- Political turmoil and protests in Hong Kong have not shaken bankers' faith in the territory as a key gateway to the Chinese capital market, with institutions saying they have no plans to move business functions even if a controversial extradition bill is pushed through.
The legislation would open the way for suspects to be handed over to Chinese authorities for a trial in the mainland. Concern about access to fair trial in China has prompted fears that the city's autonomy would be undermined by the proposed law.
