HSBC has been named South Korea’s best transaction bank, recognising a franchise combining payments, cash management and trade finance with international connectivity and locally relevant solutions.
The bank delivered transaction banking growth during the review period: global trade solutions asset balances increased at a double-digit rate and revenue rose at a single-digit rate. Global payments solutions deposits achieved single-digit growth during 2025, while cross-border payment volumes recorded double-digit growth.
HSBC expanded its Korean trade proposition during 2025 through refund guarantees for shipbuilders, refinancing for non-bank financial institutions and short-term financing supported by South Korea’s export credit framework.
