About us

Emerging markets are rapidly outperforming developed economies and redefining global economics as we know it.

HSBC is a pioneer in the emerging markets. Founded in Hong Kong and Shanghai in 1865, we have always believed in the potential of these dynamic new markets and have backed this belief with our investment in their future.

HSBC continues to break new ground in penetrating the emerging markets. For example, HSBC was the first international bank given permission by the China Banking Regulatory Commission (CBRC) to establish a bank in rural China.

HSBC gives you a better view of the emerging markets — whether in Asia, Africa, South America or the younger republics of Eastern Europe — because we aren’t just studying these economies from a distance. The world's local bank is there.
