About HSBC

A bank founded to finance 19th-century Asia trade, still awkwardly straddling East and West a century and a half later. And the long game: $100 at its first close here (1988) would be about $3,287 today.

Did you know?

  • Founded in Hong Kong in 1865; the name is Hongkong and Shanghai Banking Corporation.
  • The bronze lions outside its HQs are nicknamed Stephen and Stitt, after two 1920s bank managers.
  • Its best month on record was December 1993 at +31.78%; its worst, October 1997 at -32.52%.
