    Retail Banking Announcement

    Frequently asked questions 26 May 2021 What the repositioning of the HSBC USA Wealth and Personal Banking business means for our customers, here and abroad Why did HSBC take this action? In February 2020, we set out a plan to shift our business strategy in the United States to maximize the connection between our clients and our world-class international network. Our primary business will be a wholesale bank focused on the international needs of clients. We are renewing our emphasis on the US$5 trillion international wealth management opportunity from globally mobile and affluent individuals in the United States. Is HSBC exiting the United States? No, HSBC is not exiting its US business. We aim to be the leading international bank in the United States and are focused on what we do best – connecting Americans to a world of opportunity and bringing cross-border business and investment to the United States. We will continue to provide banking services not only to our wholesale banking clients, but also to our Premier, Jade and Private Banking customers. I have personal accounts at HSBC and I’m in the United States. How will these agreements affect me? Upon completion of the transactions, the accounts of in-scope customers will be transferred to Citizens or Cathay Bank. We thank those customers for their business and will ensure the transfer occurs with as minimum disruption as possible. Premier, Jade, Private Banking and other clients who will remain HSBC customers are in the process of being transitioned to one of our new 20-25 Wealth Centers.

    Using Replicated Ledger to Reduce Swift Costs

    WHITE PAPER USING REPLICATED LEDGER TO REDUCE SWIFT COSTS Abstract Nientibus et harum la aliquos que dunt harunte nat qui assimin ctincti nimoloratur? Quis sin enim expello rescitis aliberiosam, sumendu cienimil es ab in pelibus antiunt, eatur sit volorec tetur, occus asi suntiss imporer eperis dolupta que quid quatis mo volorit quas maio. Im acest, eos si beat. Ur? Nonseque reribus. Itatium re, nissi nullupietur audis sit adis con non corrum fugias eosae nones nonsenimus Itate esto moluptatur autatis sinctota dolent labo. Sum autem reriossum eos acerestectur rem que et haribus vel etur Introduction This paper proposes an approach to build a payment product that could be deployed across units of same bank or banks which have correspondent relationships, to reduce SWIFT message costs and to conserve liquidity by reducing need for Settlement and Nostro accounts. The paper proposes an outline of a product that implements a replicated, single wrapper around existing ledgers of such bank units to enable quick, irrevocable, tamper-proof approach to managing electronic payments between correspondent bank units. Existing ledgers of the bank would not be replaced or disturbed. Instead a wrapper application would be deployed that tracks specific entries in the ledger and replicates the changes to all members. This enables each member bank to see the same ledger at the same time and also be guaranteed of its accuracy. For this purpose, it is recommended the product be built using Blockchain for established and proven security. Such a replicated ledger would reduce active, recurring costs of using SWIFT network to pass payment messages. This will also reduce the much larger passive cost of holding funds in a non- remunerative settlement a/c with the correspondent bank.
