Top U.S. banks have flagged even more potential layoffs to save costs, especially if the economy remains under pressure from high interest rates and geopolitical tensions, threatening to derail a budding rebound in investment banking.

“These departures represent a small number, and we remain fully committed to our Corporate & Investment Banking business.”
Bloomberg News had reported the development earlier.
