The headquarters of HSBC in Hong Kong

HSBC was first established in Hong Kong in March, 1865. By the 1880s, the bank was acting as banker to the Hong Kong government under British rule. Prior to diversifying its business into a worldwide financial institution as it is known today through a series of alliances and acquisitions, the business of the Bank was concentrated in the Asian region, particularly in Hong Kong. It once adopted a shorthand of "Hong Kong Bank", which is still a widely used jargon in Hong Kong today. Download high resolution version (1536x2048, 861 KB)I took this photo on my own on 9/11. ...

The Hong Kong and Shanghai Banking Corporation Limited building on The Bund (with the round dome)

HSBC established its Shanghai branch office on the 3rd of April, 1865. Aside from the period 1941-1945, in which Japan forced HSBC and other foreign-invested banks to leave the local market, it has had a continuous presence in the city. HSBC was historically housed in one of the largest and most impressive buildings on The Bund, Shanghai's boulevard formerly known as the Wall Street of the Orient. In April 1955, HSBC handed over this office to the Communist government, and its activities were continued in rented premises. Its activities were mainly in inward remittances and export bills until the economic reforms of the late 1970s. Chinese authorities had offered to lease HSBC its old headquarters on The Bund in 1995 but the offer was turned down. Currently HSBC is located in its own HSBC Tower across the river in the Pudong area of Shanghai.
