The Shanghai Stock Exchange plans to allow all technicians, compliance officers and back-office clerks to leave a so-called closed loop, letting them commute from home every day from Monday (June 6), after mainland China’s financial hub lifted a citywide lockdown this week.

Some employees were allowed to leave the closed loop, where workers essentially sleep on-site or in dormitories nearby to avoid contact with outsiders, on Wednesday, according to two sources with knowledge of the matter who declined to be named, as they are not authorised to talk to the media.
