HSBC highlights Thailand's long-term growth potential
HSBC $HSBA (-6,44%) Thailand is supporting the Thai economy even in times of heightened global uncertainty, demonstrating its confidence in the country's long-term growth potential.
Despite the ongoing uncertainties, Thailand is poised to benefit from a robust infrastructure ecosystem that will sustain its economic momentum this year, said Giorgio Gamba, Chief Executive and Head of Banking at HSBC Thailand, in an exclusive interview with the Bangkok Post.
Mr. Gamba pointed to the success of a recent roadshow in China, where many foreign investors expressed interest in investing in Thailand in various industries. These investors include both existing HSBC clients looking to expand their investments as well as potential new investors who do not currently have a banking relationship with HSBC.
HSBC Thailand participated in the roadshow for five days in six cities in China over the past two weeks. This initiative was part of the bank's collaboration with the Board of Investment (BoI) following the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) in 2024 to promote Thailand as an investment hub in Southeast Asia.
In February, HSBC Thailand signed another MoU with the Eastern Economic Corridor Office to promote global investment in the EEC project.
Through these strategic partnerships with government agencies, Mr. Gamba said, HSBC Thailand is actively supporting economic growth. The bank plans to participate in more roadshows with government organizations throughout the year to attract foreign direct investment (FDI).
"I believe that roadshows are an effective way for us to engage with our clients and help them understand the vast business opportunities in Thailand," he said.

In addition, the Group's previously announced resource allocation of US$1.5 billion is progressing well, with further resources to be invested in asset management, international integration and capital markets in the future.

HSBC considers further outsourcing of parts of the trading business to reduce costs
HSBC Holdings Plc $HSBA (-6,44%)Europe's largest bank, is considering outsourcing part of its large trading business, according to a Bloomberg report. Executives at the bank are finding it increasingly difficult to justify the technology investments needed to keep up with larger rivals. The report cites people familiar with the matter.
Preliminary discussions have already been held about transferring some of HSBC's bond trading order volume to an external market maker. The move could save HSBC millions of dollars in IT costs associated with running trading desks around the world.
The bank is open to partnerships with companies such as Citadel Securities and Jane Street Group. However, discussions are still at an early stage and there is no guarantee that they will lead to an agreement. Representatives from HSBC, Citadel Securities and Jane Street declined to comment on the matter.
HSBC's willingness to consider such a deal suggests that even systemically important banks with extensive Wall Street operations are struggling to make the necessary technology investments to compete effectively in the trading business.

HSBC completes issuance of SGD 800 million contingent convertible bonds
HSBC Holdings plc $HSBA (-6,44%) has successfully issued SGD 800 million of subordinated contingent convertible bonds. The securities with an adjustable interest rate of 5.000% were issued pursuant to the terms set out in an underwriting agreement dated March 20, 2025.

The company emphasized that the securities have not been registered under the US Securities Act of 1933 and cannot be offered or sold within the United States or to US persons without being exempt from the registration requirements.
The Bank has also taken steps to ensure compliance with regulations, in particular those restricting the offer or sale of such securities to retail clients in the United Kingdom and the European Economic Area (EEA), in accordance with the Financial Conduct Authority's (FCA) Conduct of Business Sourcebook and the PRIIPs Regulation.
This offering is part of HSBC's US$50 billion program for the issuance of perpetual subordinated contingent capital securities as described in the Offering Memorandum and its supplements.

He joined HSBC from Goldman Sachs in 2017 after serving as a managing director in the Wall Street bank's investment banking division.

The Inka unit manages assets of around €400 billion ($436 billion).
The deal could be finalized in the coming weeks, according to the same sources, who wished to remain anonymous due to the confidential nature of the information. However, no official agreement has yet been reached.

HSBC receives exemption for the issue of convertible securities
HSBC Holdings plc $HSBA (-6,44%) has received exemptive relief from the Hong Kong Stock Exchange allowing the bank to exceed the usual 20% limit for the issue of contingent convertible securities (CCSs) as part of its capital strategy. The approval announced today allows HSBC to apply for additional authority to issue CCSs beyond the general mandate, which is usually renewed at the company's annual general meeting (AGM).
CCSs are hybrid capital securities that convert into ordinary shares under certain conditions. They are recognized for their special regulatory capital treatment under European Union and UK law. HSBC's application complies with the Institutional Guidelines and complies with the Hong Kong Stock Exchange Rules, except for the restriction on the general mandate for non-pre-emptive issues.
The additional mandate, if approved by shareholders, will be separate from the general allotment authority. This is in accordance with the Investment Association's guidelines and the Pre-Emption Group's policy statements. The mandate will remain valid until the conclusion of the first AGM following its approval or until revoked or varied by a simple resolution of shareholders.
The waiver granted is conditional on HSBC giving notice prior to the application for the mandate. Any related announcements or circulars must clearly state that the mandate is ancillary to the general mandate under Rule 13.36(2) of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange Rules.
This strategic move by HSBC Holdings plc, which was detailed in a press release, allows the bank to potentially strengthen its capital base by issuing CCSs beyond the existing limit. This provides additional flexibility in capital management.
