Are you fluent/native in Mandarin? If so, go to Zhihu, pretty sure there are tons of info about banking in mainland China (both domestic, joint-venture and foreign-funded shops) on there. If not, not sure that banking in mainland China is right for you. Sure, I know there are some boutiques that have offices in Beijing, Shanghai, but tbh I feel those are few and far between.

I thought we have a lot of info on HK banking on this forum already...

 

To enter the Chinese domestic market you need to have connection and as they just said above if you are asking probably it's not your case. Forget it.

HK side it's like the usual US/European bank + Chinese ones. If you are currently working in US/Emea it's very likely they will move you to HK if you ask your company
