Banks / HSBC India
CEO, India, HSBC โ in office since June 2021 (initially as interim CEO, confirmed following regulatory approval). Has around 30 years' experience in Indian financial markets, over 20 of them with HSBC, and previously headed HSBC India's Global Banking & Markets business before taking over as CEO.
HSBC India is not a separately incorporated Indian company. It operates as branches of The Hongkong and Shanghai Banking Corporation Limited (a subsidiary of London-headquartered HSBC Holdings plc), licensed by the RBI under its foreign bank branch framework. The senior-most executive in India therefore holds the title CEO, India โ not "MD & CEO" as at Indian-incorporated banks โ and reports into HSBC's Asia-Pacific regional management line.
