Supporting our customers

We connect capital, ideas and solutions across economies to support our customers as they adapt to the challenges of climate change and the opportunities of the transition.

Our reach across global value chains and trade corridors, deep roots in Asia and the Middle East, and expertise in infrastructure and project finance mean we can play a prominent role in financing the transition where it matters most.

Corporate and Institutional Banking and Commercial Banking customers

Our customers include businesses of all sizes – from some of the largest companies across sectors such as energy, power and utilities, transport, manufacturing and real estate, to medium-sized and small business customers with widely differing transition needs.

Our lending to corporate and institutional customers makes up the majority of our balance sheet and financed emissions, so the role we play with these customers is critical to achieving our net zero ambition.

Institutional and individual investors

We leverage our international presence and experience across developed and emerging economies to help investors navigate global markets and create investment strategies that can endure.

Asset Management serve customers ranging from individuals to sovereign wealth funds and central banks to pension schemes, insurers and corporates.

Personal, Premier and Private Bank customers

We serve individual customers across the world, with the majority of our retail franchise concentrated in the UK and Hong Kong. We provide everyday banking, lending, savings and investment solutions, helping households manage financial needs and build long-term wealth and resilience.

Alongside this, our International Wealth business seeks to protect and grow our customers’ wealth in our home markets of Hong Kong and the UK, and within growing hubs in South East Asia, the Middle East and Europe.
