Previously, employees could access Claude through the company's internal AI platform, but access has been suspended in recent weeks.

A report by the Financial Times. specify that This decision stems from the bank's strict interpretation of the terms of the contract with Anthropic, following joint discussions, and concluding that employees in Hong Kong should not have access to Anthropic products.
