The bank has landed a permanent replacement for Peter Enns, its former co-head of advisory and investment banking and advisory.

HSBC is hiring veteran banker Matthew Ginsburg as global co-head of its advisory and investment banking business, based in Hong Kong, according to a «Bloomberg» report on Friday, citing people familiar with the matter

Ginsburg, who was most recently Asia Pacific chairman for Fitch Ratings, is no stranger to the region, having been based in Hong Kong since 1992. He spent stints at Morgan Stanley and Barclays, where he led the British lender's investment banking expansion across the region.

Ginsburg will work closely with co-head Adam Bagshaw in the role. Enns relocated with HSBC to Hong Kong in 2020, but left soon after for Chubb, where he is chief financial officer.
