Today HSBC announced the launch of its Tokenized Deposit Service (TDS) in the United States, marking a significant expansion of its digital money capabilities to enable seamless, real-time funds movement across jurisdictions in a regulatory-compliant, always-on environment.
TDS combines the familiarity and trust of traditional bank deposits with the speed, transparency, and automation of blockchain-based rails. Through TDS, eligible clients can transfer funds 24/7 – domestically and cross-border – from treasury centers to subsidiaries, instantly and on-chain, improving liquidity management and global commerce.
“Our clients operate across markets, currencies, and time zones and are looking for faster, more transparent ways to manage liquidity and move money without adding operational complexity,” said Tom Halpin, North America Lead, Global Payments Solutions, HSBC. “With TDS, we’re helping clients reduce friction, improve control, and connect more easily with the evolving digital ecosystem.”
Built to integrate with clients’ existing treasury and payment infrastructures and operate within local regulatory frameworks, TDS reflects HSBC’s commitment to delivering innovation with strong governance and compliance standards. The service is also available in Hong Kong, Singapore, Luxembourg, and the UK, and supports a range of currencies including EUR, GBP, HKD, SGD, and USD.
Benefits of TDS can include:
Accelerated settlement within the tokenized deposit network
24/7 availability for domestic and cross-border transfers
More efficient working capital management and liquidity movement across accounts and entities
Compatibility with existing banking and treasury infrastructure
Improved visibility into cash positions to support real-time liquidity decisions
Reduced manual processing and straight-through processing to streamline operations
As part of its broader digital asset strategy, HSBC continues to invest in building an open, interoperable money layer, connecting core financial infrastructure with emerging digital networks. This supports a range of use cases, including bridging blockchain-enabled workflows with payment and banking rails, enabling real-time treasury management, facilitating settlement of tokenized assets, and integrating with regulated digital money solutions.

Women Are Set to Control More Wealth Than Ever but HSBC Finds Only a Minority Feel Prepared for the Financial Decisions AheadMarch 12, 2026 9:30 AM
Business Wire
New HSBC research highlights a “Financial Fluency Gap” and the need for personalized financial planning, with 70% of affluent women saying advice tailored to their life stage would improve financial decisions
KEY FINDINGS
Only 32% of affluent women say they feel prepared for their own long-term care needs, and only 29% feel prepared for their aging costs.
70% say financial education tailored to their life stage would improve their financial decisions.
Less than half of affluent women feel supported by their financial advisor or financial institution.
Nearly two-thirds of affluent women say they financially plan for others, not just themselves.
43% of affluent women prioritize leaving financial security to loved ones, significantly more than men.
As the Great Wealth Transfer accelerates, women are poised to take on an unprecedented role in global financial decision-making. By 2030, women are expected to control more than 40% of global wealth, representing one of the most significant shifts in financial power in modern history1. Yet new research from HSBC finds that many affluent women, while highly engaged in their financial lives, still feel unprepared for the complex financial decisions that accompany this growing responsibility.
The findings, based on a new study conducted by HSBC in partnership with Ipsos, show that while women are earning, saving, investing and planning for the future, many still lack the financial fluency needed to confidently navigate key decisions as their responsibilities evolve across life stages.
The research identifies what HSBC calls the Financial Fluency Gap, the space between financial literacy and the ability to apply financial knowledge strategically over time.
The report highlights that financial literacy refers to understanding the basics of money and investing, financial fluency goes further. It is the ability to apply that knowledge to real-world decisions: knowing what to do and when to do it, and how to address competing financial goals as life evolves.
These findings challenge long-held assumptions about women and wealth. The issue is not effort or ambition, but whether financial advice has evolved to reflect women’s life stages, responsibilities, priorities and longer-term realities.
As women’s lives grow more complex, from supporting children and aging parents to navigating longer life expectancies, traditional financial advice designed around static life stages may no longer reflect how women actually manage wealth.
“Our research shows that women are highly engaged in their financial lives, but engagement alone isn’t enough,” said Racquel Oden, Head of International Wealth Management and Private Banking, U.S. at HSBC. “Financial fluency goes beyond financial literacy. It’s the ability to understand what to do and when to do it as life evolves. Closing the Fluency Gap means financial institutions must do more to provide guidance that shifts with women’s lives and helps them navigate those changing priorities with clarity and confidence.”
“Throughout my work with Know Your Value, I’ve seen that women are incredibly capable and deeply engaged when it comes to building their futures,” said Mika Brzezinski, co-host of Morning Joe on MSNOW and founder of the Know Your Value movement. “But many women still feel unsure about how to translate what they know into financial decisions that support their lives and goals. That’s why the idea of financial fluency is so important. When women understand their options and feel comfortable asking questions, they’re better able to advocate for themselves and build a financial plan that truly reflects their priorities.”
As women take on an increasingly central role in wealth creation, inheritance and financial decision-making, the findings highlight the need for financial guidance that reflects the realities of women’s lives and the complexity of their financial priorities.
This presents a significant opportunity for financial institutions to move beyond traditional financial literacy efforts and support women with financial fluency — equipping them to make informed decisions, navigate trade-offs and build long-term resilience for themselves and future generations.
About the Research
The findings are detailed in the report The Financial Glow Up: The Fluency Gap in Women’s Wealth, based on an HSBC online survey conducted in partnership with Ipsos from January 5–8, 2026.
The study surveyed 2,056 individuals with investable assets over $100,000, including 1,045 women, age 18+, with investable assets > 100k, from the U.S., across multiple age groups and backgrounds. The starting sample was weighted to be representative of the U.S. population on age, race/ethnicity, education and Census region. Generation definitions used in this report: Gen Z (born 1997-2012), Millennials (1981-1996), Gen X (1965-1980), Baby Boomers (1946–1964).

AT A GLANCE: UK Bank 1Q Earnings Hit By PPI, Regulatory Charges
Last update: 5/9/2011 7:58:10 AM
THE NEWS: HSBC Holdings PLC (HBC) wrapped up the U.K. banks' first-quarter earnings Monday with a disappointing set of results that highlighted the challenges for new Chief Executive Stuart Gulliver to improve the bank's revenue and cuts its costs.
It also weighed in on how much it expects to repay to customers mis-sold payment protection insurance on mortgages and other loans, after Lloyds Banking Group PLC (LYG) shocked the market last week with a GBP3.2 billion provision.
HSBC set aside $440 million and Barclays PLC (BCS) Monday said it is earmarking GBP1 billion to PPI customers.
It was largely a lackluster quarter for the country's banks, with only Asia-focused Standard Chartered PLC (STAN.LN) pleasing the market with record income.
BARCLAYS, reported April 27: First-quarter net profit slipped to GBP1.01 billion from GBP1.067 billion amid a sharp fall in revenue at its Barclays Capital investment-banking unit. Bank executives said uncertainty over coming regulatory requirements is hindering dividend growth, and that reducing credit exposure will be a priority to curb the effects of higher capital charges from 2013 on risky assets.
Barclays said the U.K. bank levy charge will be about GBP100 million for the first quarter. On May 9, it said it is provisioning GBP1 billion for PPI customers.
SANTANDER UK, reported April 28: The U.K. arm of Spain's Banco Santander SA (STD), said higher regulatory and liquidity costs hit profit, for a 2% fall in first-quarter net profit from a year earlier, to GBP419 million. It said it has had to pay more to replace maturing debt, and is holding GBP30 billion more in liquid assets than it did 15 months ago because of tougher liquidity regulation. The bank said it is paying out PPI claims as they arise and doesn't need to make a provision.
STANDARD CHARTERED, reported May 4: The U.K.-based, Asia-focused bank said it made record revenue in the first quarter, from double-digit growth in both retail and wholesale banking. Cost growth is still outpacing revenue growth but narrowing from 2010 levels. The bank repeated guidance that it aims to fully bridge that gap by the end of 2011. Hong Kong, India, Singapore, Malaysia and China all made strong contributions, the bank said. It never sold PPI products.
LLOYDS BANKING GROUP, reported May 5: The 41% state-owned bank made a surprise GBP3.2 billion provision to cover refunds to customers mis-sold payment protection insurance on mortgages, credit cards and personal loans, a higher figure than had been expected and putting pressure on its peers to drop a legal effort to stem costs. Because of the charge, as well as lower retail margins, the bank posted a GBP2.44 billion net loss in the first quarter, compared with a GBP169 million net profit in the first quarter of 2010. Attention is now on a strategic update due at the end of June from new CEO Antonio Horta-Osorio, who gave few clues Thursday on what it might hold.
ROYAL BANK OF SCOTLAND GROUP PLC (RBS), reported May 6: The bank's first-quarter loss widened from accounting charges and rising bad debts in Ireland, but its shares rose more than 3% Friday as investors and analysts took comfort from improvements in the bank's core divisions.
Group operating profit, stripping out tax, accounting charges and restructuring costs, was GBP1.05 billion in the three months--better than some analysts' expectations--compared with GBP882 million in the first three months of 2010. The 83% state-owned bank took GBP1.95 billion in impairments, down 27% from GBP2.68 billion and including GBP1.29 billion from its Ireland loan books. RBS still hasn't said what it might have to pay over PPI.
HSBC, reported May 9: The bank's costs soared in the first quarter from a series of one-off charges that included a $440 million provision over mis-sold payment protection insurance. However, net profit rose 58% as it took hefty tax credits in its U.S. business. Analysts said they were disappointed with flat revenue and a miss on pretax profit figures, and that they would probably revise their full-year estimates downward.
HSBC's cost-income ratio, or expenses relative to income, hit 60.9%, well above its target of around 52%. New CEO Gulliver on Wednesday will outline the bank's priorities and potential step-back from some countries and businesses. Europe and North America are seen as the biggest candidates for restructuring.

HSBC chairman says banks must promote ethics
HSBC chairman says banks must promote culture of ethics and integrity
On 6:04 am EDT, Wednesday October 7, 2009
Buzz up! 0 Print.LONDON (AP) -- The chairman of banking group HSBC says bankers owe the world an apology.
Stephen K. Green, speaking in an interview with BBC television broadcast Wednesday, said the world cannot do without banks, but that bankers need to learn the lessons of the financial crisis that has rocked the world's economy.
And the most important task for their directors, he said, is to promote a culture of ethics and integrity.
"I think the change in the public perception of the industry is entirely understandable. The banking industry has not covered itself in glory to say the least, and indeed the industry collectively owes the real world an apology for what has happened, and it also owes the real world a commitment to learn the lessons," he said.
Some of those lessons "are about governance and ethics and culture within the industry," said Green, who is also a Church of England priest.
"You can't do all this simply by setting rules and regulations, you have to expect the leadership in the industry to nurture a real culture of ethics and integrity and that's actually a continuing priority, perhaps the greatest priority of all as far as I am concerned for the boards of banks," he added.
In an earlier role as head of HSBC's investment banking and markets operations, Green canceled all bonuses in 2001 and 2002 during a stock market slump. A business which had not performed well for shareholders could not justify bonuses, he said at the time.
Some bankers and analysts left the company in protest, but Green was rewarded in 2003 with promotion to chief executive.
"You can't do without banks. You can't accept the proposition that all banks, that all banking is, as it were, kind of sinful or unattractive," said Green, who is now group chairman of HSBC Holdings PLC.
"No, you've got to find the way forwards. And indeed, the vast, vast majority of bankers want to be doing a professional job, want to be there with a sense of making a real commitment."
He added: "The tragedy is, it's a very small part of the industry that has produced all of the difficulties which has led to the breakdown of public trust."

HSBC faces new onslaught from activist investor James Doran in New York The Observer
Sunday 22 February 2009 Article history Eric Knight, the activist investor, will ramp up his campaign against HSBC with renewed calls for the troubled banking group to dump its struggling US loans business amid fears that write-downs for 2008 could balloon to $20bn or more.
Knight, who has campaigned for sweeping changes at HSBC since 2007, is planning a fresh campaign to coincide with the banking group's full-year earnings announcement, scheduled for next Monday. In the past, Knight has called for the removal of HSBC's executives and for it to close down Household, its struggling US home loans arm.
Knight, who owns a swathe of HSBC shares through his Monaco-based Knight Vinke Asset Management - which has close connections to the California Public Employees Retirement System (Calpers), the world's biggest pension fund - said: "There is a time to be quiet and a time to be active, and this is a time to be active."
It is understood that Knight wants HSBC to put Household into Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection, a move he believes will end the erosion of HSBC's capital position. "It is getting worse every quarter," he said.
Sources suggested that HSBC would be forced to write down the value of troubled assets by substantially more than the $20bn already predicted by analysts. "$25bn would not be a surprise to anyone," one source said.
Knight, who is travelling in China, is expected to complete his latest analysis of HSBC's performance by the end of this week. A spokesman for HSBC declined to comment about Knight's plans but indicated the bank had no plans to put Household into bankruptcy.
The bank is one of the few in the world not to have sought capital from investors or governments since the credit crunch began.

HSBC hits 10-year low as Asian markets join global banking rout
20th February 2009 11:15
Shares in Europe's biggest lender, HSBC, hit their lowest point in a decade in Hong Kong on Friday (February 20th) amid negative speculation about the bank's forthcoming earnings and capital reserves.
The tumble helped to pull the benchmark Hang Seng Index down by 2.5 per cent as worldwide financial stocks were hammered by continuing fears over liquidity and concerns over institutions' exposure to a potential collapse in eastern Europe's banking system.
HSBC dropped 2.3 per cent to HK$53.80 (£4.95) per share, the lowest price since October 1998.
"The current economic down cycle is far from over, so the market is still trying to find a bottom," said Peter Lai of DBS Vickers.
The Hang Seng Index closed 324.19 points down at 12,.699.17. Reuters said the market was down 6.3 per cent over the week.
In Tokyo, the Nikkei 225 dropped 1.9 per cent as fears over an eastern European banking recession sent shockwaves through financial stocks.
The country's biggest lender, Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group, lost 2.3 per cent, while Mizuho Financial Group plunged 4.1 per cent.
The Nikkei closed at 7,416.38, down 4.7 per cent over the week. Japan's broad-based Topix Index also closed down, hitting its lowest point since 1984 at 739.53.
