In March 1865, HSBC opened its doors for business in Hong Kong, helping to finance trade between Europe and Asia. A local bank in Hong Kong subsequently grew into a global financial institution. Leveraging the heritage of the global company with local historical references, we designed a series of History Walls incorporating graphics, objects and audiovisual in offices from Birmingham to Tokyo.
The origins of HSBC Continental Europe date back to the end of the 19th century with the creation of the Banque Suisse et Française in 1894. In order to better reflect the nature and extent of its activities, HSBC France changed its name on December 1, 2020, to become HSBC Continental Europe and moved to a new head office at 38 avenue Kléber in Paris.
