A0/A1 Base in 2021? Does HSBC pay street?

There seems to be not much information about HSBC in this forum. Wondering if they pay street

Also, what is the typical A0 & A1 base in 2021? Heard the rumor that some banks have bumped it to either 160 or 175

Investment Banking Mock Coffee Chat

“Great insight into Sam’s career path from Singapore to LBS, Goldman and now Wells Fargo. Discussed TMT coverage and the growth of sports media funding and M&A. Plan: base my WSO equity research project on a sports company I connect with, building TMT/sports knowledge to differentiate myself while staying open to any opportunity. He’s drawn to M&A for the CEO-level exposure, versus the CFO focus in S&T. Agreed to keep in touch and identify specific targets. Really valued his time and honesty. Insight into the work culture at Goldman Sachs from his time - ultra cometitve environment ”

Investment Banking Mock Interview

“Very patient in explanation and was very good at walking me through some of the concepts without giving anything away. Great job breaking up the material and asking questions outside of the 400 guide which really tested my knowledge on some of the more basic concepts I thought I had a good understanding of, but might need to learn a little more. Will continue to schedule Consatantin as I thought the overall ease of the scheduling was nice, and he was more that available to go over the origonal time we had planned out.”
