Corporate governance codes
As a UK and Hong Kong listed company, HSBC is required to comply with the listing rules and corporate governance codes in both these markets.
Details of HSBC’s compliance with the applicable provisions of the UK Corporate Governance Code and the requirements of the Hong Kong Corporate Governance Code, subject to the exceptions disclosed, can be found on page 315 of the Annual Report and Accounts 2023 (PDF 6.73MB)
HSBC also has a listing, through an American Depository Receipt (ADR) programme, on the New York Stock Exchange.
