Foreign exchange protection
HSBC experts will help you develop a four-point plan to:
- understand your exposures
- understand the solutions
- develop a strategy
- implement your strategy.
You can benefit, if you are an importer / an exporter; engaged in cross border trade; the owner of overseas assets, joint ventures or partnerships competing with overseas companies.
Interest rate protection
If your business has borrowings in excess of £250,000 (and this may include loans or finance with other banks), we can help protect you against increased interest costs if UK interest rates rise.
There are a range of approaches to interest rate risk management; these could include fixing your rate with a fixed rate loan or interest rate swap. Alternatively, more flexible approaches can protect you against adverse movements in rates but allow you to benefit when rates move favourably.
Money markets
If your cash or your cash investments are in excess of £50,000, our global money market services offer a range of corporate deposits in all major currencies.
We are a key player in the professional money markets, taking large volumes of institutional deposits and managing the Group's retail bank clearing operations.
Services include:
- Cash loans and deposits
- Short-dated government and high-quality debt instruments
- Certificates of deposit
- Commercial Paper (HSBC USA Inc)
- Repo/Reverse
- Liquidity Funds
