- HSBC is preparing to wind down its M&A and equity capital markets businesses in Europe, the UK and the Americas as part of a major shake-up of its investment banking operations, a memo showed on Tuesday.

The memo also mentioned that the bank will continue to support its clients in these regions but with a leaner team, emphasizing efficiency and cost reduction.
