I work at HSBC. Considering they don’t do shit, not really surprised. Bulk of work is handled by sector corp banking coverage teams and LAF (both of which are sufficiently staffed).

Where did you hear this?

 

Bonuses are announced in February, paid in March, so I guess we will hear in the next 2 weeks?

 

Absolute appalling. Right before bonus after 1 hard year of work.

They cut everywhere now - if you are at the bottom /analyst or associate, you are no longer protected. These are arguably the hardest working ones. 

 

RAF: Real Assets Finance. It’s the project finance group. Don’t know much about them

 

They hired some director/MD (can’t remember) from CVP

 

HSBC usually do cuts in October/November time frame. Cuts now leading up to bonus season would be highly unusual. 
 

The rumour I’ve heard is that bonus pool bank wide is up a bit this year. Not sure how much of that is allocated to Global Banking/Markets.
