HSBC intends to concentrate on growing its wealth clientele in Hong Kong by utilising its distinct location in the area to cater to foreign customers.
Tony Leung Chiu-wai, a well-known actor, has been chosen as the Hong Kong ambassador for its new wealth programme, “Wealth. Growing at every stage.”
With an estimated 80 million more middle-class and affluent people expected to live in Mainland China by 2030, the bank sees a big opportunity to assist these clients in climbing the financial ladder. Presently, HSBC Hong Kong provides services to more than five million individual clients in Hong Kong.
The strengths of HSBC’s Retail, Wealth, Private Banking, Insurance, and Asset Management businesses were combined to form one of the most significant wealth managers in the world when it launched its Wealth and Personal Banking division in 2020.
Through this integration, HSBC’s worldwide private banking division, retail banking division, and wealth management section may operate together and take advantage of each other’s business networks and skills. Across the wealth continuum, HSBC assists clients with their investing journeys.
In recent years, HSBC Global Private Banking (GPB) has experienced tremendous expansion in its Hong Kong customer base, effectively moving numerous clients from retail to GPB. This transition has given them access to a broader selection of products and services on a global scale, as well as tailored wealth and multi-generational planning.
