Macquarie says trading in HK-listed warrants affected

Macquarie Capital, the investment banking and advisory arm of Australia’s Macquarie, is temporarily unable to provide liquidity services for all its unexpired warrants listed on the Hong Kong stock exchange due to “technical problems”, it said in a filing.

Macquarie did not clarify if these issues were related to the ongoing global cyber outage that has affected airlines, media companies, banks and telecoms firms around the world.

The Australia government has said that the nation-wide outage appeared to be linked to cybersecurity firm Crowdstrike. – Reuters
