HSBC’s leadership faced shareholders in their largest market to defend their strategy on Monday. Europe’s biggest bank has been under pressure to be split up as frustration grows among investors.
At an informal meeting in Hong Kong, Chairman Mark Tucker and CEO Noel Quinn fielded questions from shareholders on various issues concerning the bank. One of the main topics discussed was the approach to demands for a business overhaul, notably its recent purchase of Silicon Valley Bank’s UK arm.
Tucker and Quinn emphasized that the board is unanimously against a resolution requiring the bank to spin off or reorganize its Asian business, the main source of profits. They argued that splitting the bank would not be in shareholders’ best interests as it would destroy value, including dividends.
The two leaders reiterated that the current strategy is successful, moving dividends in the right direction. With continuous pressure to separate the Asian business from the rest of the bank, HSBC revealed that profits in key markets like Hong Kong and the UK are performing well.
Quinn addressed concerns by shareholders about potential revenue loss post-breakup due to the bank’s reliance on cross-border transactions. Furthermore, investors unhappy with the earlier dividend cancellation continue to advocate for the split to safeguard interests in various jurisdictions.
Joining the call for the spinoff, Christine Fong, a district council member in Hong Kong, highlighted the adverse effects of the past decisions on small shareholders and the need for change. Similarly, activist shareholder Ken Lui, values support for the proposed resolution to pass in May and is actively engaging with shareholders for backing.
Acknowledging the pressure, HSBC’s largest shareholder, Ping An, a significant Chinese insurer, also advocates for HSBC to explore restructuring for enhanced performance and value. They support initiatives and simplifications, including the possible spinoff of the Asian business, to boost stock performance and value.
