HSBC Group Chief: Hong Kong Best Base for Banks
Company's Group President Douglas Flint to Speak at AFF 2012

HONG KONG, Jan 12, 2012 - (ACN Newswire) - Hong Kong is a "relevant choice" as a regional and global headquarters for any company, including banks, according to HSBC Group Chairman Douglas Flint.

Speaking ahead of next week's Asian Financial Forum in Hong Kong, Mr Flint says the city represents "by far the most important operation" for banks in terms of profitability and as a hub for the region and the Chinese mainland.
