HSBC is a large international bank with a wide network across Asia‑Pacific and beyond, offering cross‑border payments in dozens of currencies to more than 150–200 countries.
Marketing for its cross‑border services emphasises fast, convenient and secure international payments that leverage HSBC’s global footprint, with a particular focus on enabling individuals and businesses to move money and manage cash across borders efficiently.
HSBC’s main IMT offerings include: standard international bank transfers, “Global Money Transfers” within its mobile apps, and same‑day or near‑real‑time remittances between HSBC accounts in various Asia‑Pacific markets.
Coverage across many Asia‑Pacific countries plus Australia and New Zealand; for a Pacific user this usually means sending from (or to) Australia, New Zealand or Asian hubs rather than directly to smaller Pacific Island banking systems.
Q: How fast are transfers?
A: HSBC promotes same‑day or very fast transfers between HSBC accounts in certain Asia‑Pacific corridors and standard cross‑border transfer times (typically one to several business days) when sending to non‑HSBC banks.
Q: How are transfers initiated?
A: Retail customers usually set up payees and send money through the HSBC mobile app or online banking; business clients may use platforms such as HSBCnet.
Q: What limits apply?
A: Country‑specific materials describe maximum daily amounts (e.g., thousands to tens of thousands of local currency), plus standard AML/CFT checks and documentation when larger sums are involved.
