Hong Kong Shanghai Bank
Tuesday 20 June was a cold, wet and blustery night, but inside the White Heron there was a small gathering of Sunny Southlanders crowded around a hot glowing open fire enjoying a few drinks, hot tasty nibbles and each others company.

Why were they there? They wanted to meet Colin Ross and Gerald Ryan from HSBC and - learn more about this particular bank and the benefits they can offer us. And that's just what happened!
Colin began his presentation at the banks beginnings - 1865 in Hong Kong and Shanghai, taking us right through history, the ups and downs and bringing us through to the present moment, explaining the definite benefits of doing business with a worldwide bank.
With their Headquarters now in London, HSBC is one of the largest banking and financial services organisations in the world, has offices in 77 countries and serves around 110 million customers. Their extensive range of financial services include personal and commercial banking services, trade finance, treasury and financial markets, and corporate finance. The night finished off with a great prize draw where four lucky people took home smart looking black polo shirts and an overnight bag, all branded with HBSC of course! Thank you Colin and Gerald for coming to Southland and giving us the opportunity to hear what the HSBC can do for us.
