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 />
