HSBC Sri Lanka has been recognised as the Best International Bank in Sri Lanka by Euromoney, in its Awards for Excellence 2024. 

The award recognises HSBC’s commitment to digitisation and providing competitive financial services by delivering exceptional financial results in 2023. This has further highlighted the key achievements in areas such as wholesale banking, sustainable finance and the bank’s strategic sustainability efforts in environmental conservation and women empowerment. 

In Asia, HSBC was bestowed with 18 awards, including Asia’s Best Bank, Asia’s Best Bank for Transaction Services, Asia’s Best Bank for Sustainable Finance and Best International Bank in Australia, China, India, Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand, the Philippines and Vietnam.

HSBC Sri Lanka and Maldives CEO Mark Surgenor commented, “We are proud to receive this distinguished award from Euromoney, that is very timely and comes in the wake of a key milestone we crossed this year: the 30th anniversary in credit cards in Sri Lanka. The recognition is a testament to the hard work, dedication and innovative spirit of the HSBC team in Sri Lanka. We remain committed to opening up a world of opportunity for our customers and clients, colleagues and the communities we serve as we have done since 1892.”

Earlier this year, HSBC Sri Lanka was also recognised as the Best International Bank in Sri Lanka for 2024, by Finance Asia, for the seventh time, citing HSBC’s strong performance last year, as it furthered its ambition across its diversified operations in the country to digitise at scale, energise for growth and transition to net zero.
