Access the working capital you need and improve cash flow by bridging the gap between settlement with suppliers and payment from buyers, putting you in the position to negotiate better prices. Our import finance solutions offer flexible financing options, fixed or variable repayments and a drawdown process on individual transactions to qualified importers. This is combined with our international trade expertise, which enables us to design a structure to suit your specific trading cycle.

Make the most of your cash surpluses by using our broad range of business investment options. With terms from a few days to a number of years and even open-ended alternatives, HSBC offers solutions that could contribute to your short-term liquidity and longer-term asset-management requirements. Our experienced relationship managers and investment specialists can work with you to gain an understanding of your business objectives, and thus can help you identify opportunities to develop levels of return that fit with your appetite for risk. Remember that all investments carry risk. The value of investments and any income received from them can fall as well as rise, and you may not get back what you invested. For some investments this can be caused by exchange rate fluctuations where shares and funds are exposed to overseas markets.

Optimise your working capital and make transactions in local and foreign currencies more efficiently by using HSBC’s payment and account solutions. With flexible transaction processing, versatile account structures, robust reporting and direct access to a suite of foreign currency services, you can validate transaction details online, receive transaction confirmation immediately and customise payment templates to reduce errors in recurring transactions.
