HSBC has decided to wind up its private banking unit in India.
“After a strategic review of the private banking services, the group has decided to close down the business in India,” confirmed a spokesperson from HSBC.
The spokesperson further said, “We will work closely with the clients to minimize the impact by offering a choice to move to HSBC Premium.”
The private banking arm of the bank is expected to wind up its business by the first quarter of FY 2016-17.
