Asian markets an HSBC focus
(11 May 2011 – Australia) Australian investors can now diversify their exposure to Asia’s growth through HSBC’s new Asian Equity Investment.
The new structured investment product offers capital protected exposure to equity indices in Hong Kong, China, Taiwan, Korea, Singapore, Thailand and India with a five-year investment term.
This is the sixth product in HSBC’s 100+ Series of structured investments; the Asian Equity Investment broadens the exposure offered in HSBC’s earlier products, which focused on China and East Asia.
Head of Sales in Global Banking and Markets for HSBC Bank Australia Ian Collins said the investment is designed for investors who want to access the upside exposure of the Asian growth story with the security of full capital protection in the event of market corrections.
"With Asian economies continuing to outperform the West and with Asian share markets attractively priced, the Asian Equity Investment provides Australian investors with a timely opportunity to access the outstanding growth potential available in broad range of Asia’s fast-growing emerging markets," Mr Collins said.
