Has a subsidiary bank in Russia. HSBC said it still expects to complete the sale of its Russia business in first-half 2023, in the most significant update on the progress of the deal since it said in July 2022 it had agreed to sell the unit to local lender Expobank. HSBC Group will end money transfer services to and from Russia and Belarus for its corporate clients next month as financial institutions react to Western sanctions over the war in Ukraine.

The Company Statement
February 19, 2024

Continues to work. Breaks ties with sanctioned banks. HSBC agrees deal to sell Russian unit to Expobank. The South China Morning Post reported on Monday, October 17, 2022 that Hongkong and Shanghai Banking Corporation (HSBC) had sent a letter to most of its Russian clients in the city over the suspension of retail investment services because of sanctions enacted by the European Union. However, the suspension would not affect clients’ personal savings accounts or other personal banking needs, the report noted. The British financial conglomerate HSBC expects the deal for the sale of its Russian business to be closed in the first half of 2024. HSBC greenlit by US to sell Russian business amid sanctions. Putin allowed Expobank to acquire all shares of HSBC Bank.
