In a statement, it said that the construction of HSBC’s new country HQ in TRX in Kuala Lumpur further cements its growth plans in Malaysia; a priority market for the HSBC Group globally, and is a strong testament of the bank’s long-term commitment to its business and customers here.
YB Senator Tengku Datuk Seri Utama Zafrul bin Tengku Abdul Aziz, Minister of Finance, Malaysia said, “Malaysia’s diverse and developed financial sector will be critical in facilitating the nation’s developmental needs. Malaysia’s banking sector – one of the most robust in Asia – is well-positioned to realise the nation’s aspirations, especially as it, too, is undergoing transformation and significant change.
Stuart Milne, Chief Executive Officer of HSBC Bank Malaysia said, “Just as we have been part of so much of Malaysia’s economic past for the last 130 years, we are committed to continuing to help the country grow for the next century and beyond.
Malaysia remains central to HSBC’s strategy and is especially crucial to the Group’s growth plans across the ASEAN region – an area that represents significant growth potential.
The move of our head office to Menara IQ at TRX is a strong demonstration of our unwavering commitment to Malaysia and our customers here”.
A total of 5,000 employees will be based in the bank’s new office at the Menara IQ building. The bank’s flagship branch at Leboh Ampang also relocated to Menara IQ.
