HSBC in Thailand was named as the Best Bank in Thailand by The Asset Magazine in its Triple A Country Award 2008 for the sixth consecutive year.
HSBC in Thailand achieved an impressive profit growth despite an unfavorable global economic situation and the country’s political uncertainties. It has been recognised as the leadership of corporate, institutional banking and markets deploying commercial banking capabilities to capture business opportunities driven by the healthy regional trade and Thailand’s investment growth. It has a strong debt capital markets platform, arranging the first Thai baht bond for Export-Import Bank of Korea and Agence Francaise de Developpement, amounting to 3.5 billion baht, and 1.5 billion baht, respectively.
