HSBC will phase out its transaction services business in Germany, eliminating more than 300 positions at HSBC Transaction Services GmbH and HSBC Service Company Germany GmbH by 2028. The move is part of a wider strategy to concentrate on businesses where HSBC sees stronger competitive advantages and follows last year’s sale of its German private banking arm. Management says the exit could improve efficiency and profitability, while risks include lost client relationships, near-term restructuring costs and potential weakening of its German corporate franchise amid broader European retrenchment. » Mais em finance.yahoo.com
