Investing in the Pearl River Delta

Peter Wong, Deputy Chairman and Chief Executive, The Hongkong and Shanghai Banking Corporation Limited, explains why HSBC is investing in the Pearl River Delta.

The economy of the Pearl River Delta, in Guangdong province, is changing fast. Manufacturers in major cities such as Guangzhou and Shenzhen helped to drive China’s rapid economic growth over the past 30 years. Today, businesses in the Pearl River Delta are investing heavily in research and development to produce more sophisticated goods. The services sector is also set for growth, and rising prosperity is fuelling the growth of the middle class.

As the leading international bank in mainland China, HSBC is well-positioned to make the most of opportunities arising from this transformation.

HSBC hosted an Investor and Analyst Roadshow in the Pearl River Delta from 11-13 April. The bank produced a factbook and presentations for analysts and investors, which outline the bank’s strategy and priorities in the region.

These and other investor presentations can be found in the Events and presentations section.
