GLOBALLY THE BANK IS INVESTING US$2.1 BILLION IN DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION<br />
BETWEEN 2015 AND 2020, AND WE ARE SEEING THIS SORT OF<br />
INNOVATION DIRECTLY BENEFIT LOCAL BUSINESSES.<br />
Through digital enhancements, for instance, HSBC<br />
is developing its account opening procedures,<br />
to make the client journey even smoother.<br />
We are seeing innovation transform the world of<br />
cash management too. For corporate customers<br />
HSBC has a number of platforms at its disposal,<br />
such as our proprietary platforms – Business<br />
Internet Banking, HSBCnet, HSBC Connect (host<br />
to host) and full SWIFT functionality, that can be<br />
tailored and adapted according to specific needs,<br />
to help them navigate an evolving, complex<br />
digital and instant payments landscape.<br />
For example, a number of local corporate service<br />
providers and asset and investment managers are<br />
using the Bank’s full SWIFT functionality to obtain<br />
global visibility and control over all their bank<br />
accounts, including third party bank accounts<br />
together with making payments. This is essential<br />
in effectively managing their treasury functions.<br />
One further success story is the Bank’s<br />
communications platform HSBCNet, which has<br />
become a gateway not only for cash management,<br />
but also foreign exchange and international trade,<br />
for a growing number of local corporates.<br />
Accessed via the web or a mobile device<br />
app, HSBCNet offers customers a number of<br />
benefits, including:<br />
• real-time visibility over cash globally wherever<br />
they are in the world<br />
• ability to create and authorise payments<br />
• reconciliation and reporting facilities<br />
• a range of interactive services<br />
• enhancements rolled out on an ongoing basis<br />
In a complex and volatile global business and<br />
payments environment, corporate treasurers are<br />
revisiting and revising their account structures and use<br />
of liquidity management solutions.<br />
Globally-experienced and innovative banks can play<br />
a vital role in supporting them in these endeavours,<br />
to turn what could be challenges into tremendous<br />
opportunities. Embracing HSBC’s local, regional and<br />
global expertise can undoubtedly give businesses<br />
in the islands a genuinely competitive edge and<br />
contribute towards their future success.<br />
