China police question staff at US consultancy giant Bain
"We can confirm that the Chinese authorities have questioned staff in our Shanghai office," Bain said.The company's statement came after a media report that police made an unannounced visit to Bain's office in the Chinese financial hub two week ago.
According to the company's website, Bain's Shanghai office was opened in the city's central business district in 2004. It also has offices in Beijing and Hong Kong. As tensions have grown in recent months between the world's two largest economies, US businesses have become concerned about their prospects in China.
"Our business community is spooked, and our members are asking, 'Who's next?' Irrespective of the government's intention, that's the message being received," he added.
