HSBC in the region
The Hong Kong and Shanghai Banking Corporation Limited remains the largest bank incorporated in the Hong Kong SAR and HSBC’s flagship bank in Asia, with operations in 21 countries and territories in the region. Hang Seng Bank Limited, a majority owned subsidiary, is also based in Hong Kong. We are the leading foreign bank operating in China, both through our own network and through partnerships with several important Chinese banks, including a 19.01 per cent stake in China’s fifth largest bank, Bank of Communications, and 16.78 per cent in one of China’s largest insurers, Ping An Insurance. This region also includes our fast-growing businesses in the Middle East, where HSBC Bank Middle East Limited and a Group associate, The Saudi British Bank, have the widest network of branches, subsidiaries and associates in the region.
Sustainability in the region
We established a Regional Corporate Sustainability Office in 2007 to lead and coordinate the development and implementation of sustainability initiatives across the region. Based in Hong Kong, the new department initiated a Regional Corporate Sustainability Committee, in which all major business and functional units meet bi-monthly to explore sustainable business development opportunities. The office also provides leadership in diversity matters by chairing the Regional Diversity Committee.
