The history of HSBC’s branch in Chattogram can also be traced back to the British Era. In July 1947, an official of United Kingdom’s Mercantile Bank of India Limited was dispatched to East Bengal. The official, Lionel Blanks, was visiting Dhaka, Narayanganj, Chandpur and Chattogram, looking into the prospect of opening up a new branch of Mercantile Bank’s subsidiary Hong Kong Bank. In 1951, the Mercantile Bank of India opened their first office in Chittagong.
By 1959, through a series of mergers and divisions, its name had been shortened to Mercantile Bank Ltd and was acquired by HSBC the same year. The bank was an issuer of Hongkong bank notes until 1974. On 3 December 1996, HSBC opened its first branch in Bangladesh in the iconic Anchor Tower, Dhaka. Today, as one of the leading international banks in Bangladesh, HSBC remains a constant partner for the country’s sustainable growth and development, connecting customers to opportunities.
