There have been several recent digital asset and payment initiatives from banks and fintechs aiming to better link Apac firms with the Middle East.

Real-time payment rails, digital assets, APIs and AI are higher on the treasury agenda, HSBC's Manoj Dugar tells CT.

Hung has taken up a new position as head of global corporates, Hong Kong, Corporate and Institutional Banking (CIB), at the global bank.

As treasurers show more interest in the use of digital assets, the two firms will integrate stablecoins into payment flows over the next few months.

The aim of the programme is to strengthen the ESG performance of suppliers and to support a low carbon future in Hong Kong.

Lau, who joins in May 2026, has most recently been chief financial officer, Asia and the Middle East, at HSBC.

Six months after so-called 'Liberation Day', Asian firms are showing signs of adaption and stabilisation, according to a new trade survey from HSBC. India, Bangladesh, and Indonesia appear to be performing well.

CT recently caught up with Manoj Dugar and Yvonne Yiu, HSBC’s Apac regional co-heads, global payments solutions, about how payments are being impacted by tariffs, AI, cost pressures, differing systems, and the desire for speed and interoperability.

When corporate treasurers face market volatility, HSBC’s Rahul Badhwar explains how the bank’s HSBC AI Markets platform, which uses natural language processing and machine learning, is helping clients cut through complexity, manage risk, and focus more time on strategic decision-making.

Baksi has switched roles at the bank to oversee HSBC's GTS business across Singapore, Philippines, Thailand and Vietnam.

The window left for negotiation remains key for the market to understand the impact of tariff policies, according to experts speaking at HSBC’s summit in Hong Kong this week; overnight the White House has announced 25% tariffs on cars from April 3 and car parts from May 3.

The bank's regional Apac co-head of trade finance has said he is leaving to take a break; Aditya Gahlaut, has started as regional head, Asia, global trade solutions, at HSBC; the bank has also made changes in its regional payment leadership team.
