SA - HSBC Coverage Relationship Management

Hi, I'm interviewing for a SA position at HSBC in Coverage Relationship Management (Client Management: see description below). It's within their Global Banking & Markets division. I have been asking around and other people who did the program called it investment banking. However, the description (again, see below) does not seem technical at all. To what extent can i expect technical ibanking questions? And if not, what kind of questions will I get asked?

"The role of an Analyst within Client Management will focus on transforming ideas into presentations to be used in client settings and cultivating client relationships. As a people-driven business, Client Management delivers a comprehensive range of financial products and services by developing long-standing, trusted adviser relationships with top-level executives."
