HSBC was founded in Hong Kong in March 1865 to finance growing trade between Europe, India and China. Today we operate in countries and territories around the world but retain a strong commitment to Hong Kong, which is one of our two home markets, and our business and operational centre for the Asia-Pacific region.
The bank is known in Cantonese as “Wayfoong”, which translates as “focus of wealth” or “abundance of remittances”.
