The move, which was first announced internally on Monday, has affected more than 100 employees across Moody’s Beijing, Shanghai and Shenzhen offices, one of the sources said.
“As announced during our most recent earnings call, Moody’s is taking steps to align our global workforce with current and anticipated economic conditions,” a Shanghai-based spokesperson for Moody’s said in an emailed statement.
The firm continues to maintain a strong presence in China, the spokesperson added, without specifically commenting on the shutting down of the business unit or job cuts as a result of that move.
