HSBC is hosting interactive, classroom-style training programmes in Hong Kong to equip business owners with the necessary skills and knowledge to capitalise on trade opportunities in 2009.
Through a series of monthly trade workshops, participants will learn about the processes associated with doing business internationally, as well receive clarification on the requirements and paperwork needed to successfully trade regionally and with other global markets.
Christine Wang, head of client management, HSBC trade and supply chain, in Hong Kong says, “HSBC’s Trade Academy demonstrates our commitment to helping our clients’ businesses grow. With our global reach and local expertise, we are well placed to help exporters and importers reduce their risks when engaging in cross border trade.
“In the current environment, our customers are increasingly looking overseas for new opportunities and are asking for help with their business decisions. As the leading trade finance bank in Hong Kong, we are committed to helping businesses understand the current environment and learn how to grow their business while protecting their company.”
HSBC’s Trade Academy consists of regular half-day training programmes held at HSBC premises. Each seminar is designed to provide comprehensive, yet ‘easy-to-digest’ information and updates on trade finance and trade-related topics.
The academy also offers bespoke programmes for larger corporations with more complex needs. Seminar topics can be tailored to suit the industry-specific requirements of certain companies, and are conducted by HSBC trade experts.
HSBC’s Trade Academy is also being run on mainland China, Malaysia and Thailand.
