A truly global bankCiting HSBC’s most impressive achievement of the past 12 months as the rights issue of March this year, Euromoney said "the crisis showed up which banks the markets thought were safest - and HSBC came out firmly on top.” They said the bank has “adopted a clear policy of focusing expansion on emerging markets and on the international connectivity of those markets with the developed world. It is a truly global bank. Conservativism, strong capital management and responsible practice have certainly been the core of HSBC since we were founded in 1865.
