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. -

Mis-Selling Claims by High Net Worth Couple for Poorly Performing Investments Sold by Bank’S Pushy Ex- Salesman Dismissed
Mis-selling claims by high net worth couple for poorly performing investments sold by bank’s pushy ex- salesman dismissed Les and Janet O’Hare v. Coutts & Co [2016] EWHC 2224 (QB) Article by David Bowden Les and Janet O’Hare v. Coutts & Co -[2016] EWHC 2224 (QB) Mis-selling claims by high net worth couple for poorly performing investments sold by bank’s pushy ex-salesman dismissed Following a 10 day trial, in which mis-selling claims were made against a private bank by a high net worth couple, in a surprising ruling the judge has dismissed all claims. The bank failed to call its former salesman Mr Shone to give evidence to defend his and the bank’s reputation despite having said it would do so. All of the bank’s witnesses that did give oral evidence were castigated by the judge. The judge however found that all 3 of the claimant’s witnesses were credible and telling the truth. A complaint about one product had been made to and dismissed by the bank but it had offered $250k as a goodwill gesture to be offset against future charges. Despite the bank’s figures and evidence on this being hopelessly muddled, the judge ruled that Mr & Mrs O’Hare had received the full benefit of it. Claims in relation to 2010 products were dismissed but without reference to them being time barred. Mr & Mrs O’Hare claimed that RBSI products were misrepresented to them because they had glowing past performance figures in the glossy sales brochures which were made up but an explanation of this was buried in the small print. -
