Based in London, HSBC has grown to establish a strong foothold across different continents, providing a wide variety of services like retail banking, corporate banking, investment banking, and wealth management.
HSBC’s Inception and Growth
The journey of HSBC traces back to the mid-19th century when Thomas Sutherland founded the bank in the former British territories of Hong Kong and Shanghai. The vision was to facilitate the growing trade between Europe, India, and China. Over the decades, HSBC has expanded its footprint across the globe through organic growth and strategic acquisitions. Today it operates in over 64 countries and territories all over the world, serving more than 40 million customers. This global reach is not something unique in the modern banking world, and competitors like Barclays and Citi also have a massive international presence.

HSBC provides an array of comprehensive financial services to a wide customer base that ranges from individual consumers to multinational corporations. Its four major business components include retail banking and wealth management, commercial banking, global banking and markets, and global private and investment banking.
