Former JPMorgan senior banker pleads not guilty to bribery charges

JPMorgan's former Asia investment banking vice-chair Catherine Leung pleaded not guilty to charges of bribery in a Hong Kong court on Thursday.

Leung is alleged to have offered employment to the son of the chairman of a logistics company as a reward for the chairman favouring JPMorgan when choosing banks to work on the company's IPO, Hong Kong's Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC) said in May.
