Sub-Custody and Clearing in India

HSBC has been present in the Indian market since 1853 and has dominated the custody landscape in India ever since the market opened to foreign investors in 1993. We were the first custodian to facilitate a foreign institutional investor (FII) trade in India and are now a leading sub-custody provider in this segment. As a pre-eminent player in the industry, we are the first port of call for local regulators and have pioneered several initiatives that have subsequently become market practices. Our knowledge base and understanding of the market makes us a preferred provider of custody services in India. As a testimony to our superior service, HSBC consistently performs well in industry surveys and awards, including Global Custodian magazine's annual Review of Agent Banks in Emerging Markets, where we have been Top-rated in the market, for several years in a row.

We constantly endeavour to meet all our clients' needs through new products and services, for example, derivatives clearing, clearing for securities lending and borrowing trades (SLB) and tax services.

HSBC has invested heavily in staff, systems and automation to achieve high levels of straight through processing (STP) and make our operations in India one of the very best in the market. The consistency, reliability and flexibility of our service have earned us a prominent place in this business in India. We provide customised, value-added services, competitive fees and a continuous commitment to quality delivered by highly qualified staff.
