The organisation
What HSBC does
HSBC is one of the world's largest banking and financial services organisations, headquartered in London. It traces its origins to the Hongkong and Shanghai Banking Corporation, founded in Hong Kong in 1865 to finance trade between Europe and Asia. Today HSBC serves individuals, businesses and institutions across dozens of countries, with a particular strength in trade and cross-border banking. HSBC Holdings is listed on the London Stock Exchange and the Hong Kong Stock Exchange.

HSBC in the Netherlands
HSBC opened a branch in Amsterdam in 1999, and later, as part of its post-Brexit European restructuring, incorporated HSBC Continental Europe, with the Amsterdam office continuing to serve as a Dutch base for corporate and institutional clients. From Amsterdam, HSBC offers global payments, trade finance, hedging and financing services to Dutch and internationally active companies. For finance students, this is a relatively compact office focused on corporate banking relationships rather than large-scale trading operations.
Structure
Divisions and where you work
HSBC's Amsterdam office is organised around Commercial Banking and Global Banking and Markets client relationships, covering trade finance, payments, financing and hedging solutions for Dutch corporates. Finance graduates typically start in relationship management, product or markets-support roles.
