A place where you can grow

We’ve been operating in India for over 160 years, making it one of the oldest foreign Banks. The Bank has a network of 100 branches across 42 cities and we were the first foreign Bank to commence banking activities in India’s International Financial Services Centre (in GIFT City, Gujarat). Key business segments include Corporate and Investment Banking (CIB) and Wealth and Retail Banking (WRB). This market also has a full-service universal bank and non-banking finance lending entity to complement the Bank’s presence in specific geographies and segments, and a retail securities broking business.

India is also home to our technology team, who are at the centre of our digital future, serving our clients digitally across the world. More than 17,000 technologists work together across our unique geographic footprint. Having diverse, collaborative teams, with varied ideas and cultures enables us to lead this change. As does our strong engineering culture, using agile methodologies, continuous delivery practices and improvement processes, we constantly strive to reduce product time-to-market and streamline our development.
