HSBC Singapore launches new retail banking, investment platforms

Its financial planning and tracking app will have risk and scenario analysis functions.

HSBC Singapore is floating new digital platforms to better support its retail banking and wealth management business, according to a news release.

This follows the $2.9b (US$2.2b) global investment the bank made in H1 2019 to enhance its digital capabilities. As one of the eight “scale” global markets, the Lion City has received a considerable proportion of this investment over the past two years.

Launched this month, HSBC Wealth Portfolio Plus is an end-to-end financial planning and tracking app. It includes risk and scenario analysis functions courtesy of BlackRock’s Aladdin Wealth platform. This is the first app to offer institutional analytical capabilities to retail investors in Singapore.

On the other hand, the Structured Product Online Platform is a solution for accredited investors to invest in structured products offered by the bank. It is slated for launch in Q1 2020.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.


If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
