Commitment to Singapore's wealth hub status

"HSBC’s continued investment in physical and digital infrastructure demonstrates our commitment to ensuring every client interaction is meaningful and tailored to their unique needs," said Ashmita Acharya, Head of Wealth and Personal Banking at HSBC Singapore. "The new centre is part of our dedication to providing the best possible environment for wealth management, reinforcing our long-term commitment to Singapore as an international wealth hub."

By increasing its investment fivefold in its physical network and transforming its branches into wealth centres, HSBC is positioning itself to better serve the needs of affluent clients in Singapore. The new Wealth Centre represents a significant step in this direction, combining advanced facilities with a client-centric approach to wealth management.
