Wikipedia: "After the British established Hong Kong as a crown colony in the aftermath of the First Opium War, merchants from other parts of the British Empire, now in Hong Kong, felt the need for a bank to finance the growing trade, through Hong Kong and sometimes also through Shanghai, between China and India, the rest of the British Empire and Europe, of goods, produces and merchandises of all kinds, but especially opium, cultivated in or transited (re-exported) through the Raj." Knowing the history of that entity, let say I won't use that bank in a near future. Let's not forget the Brits used to terrorize the Chinese to force them to take in these opioid drugs. I wonder how many families were destroyed because of these predators.

The HSBC Group processes lot of transactions of layering accounts and making Fraud is a serious problem in HK now. Compliance staff at banks have no excuse of not having AML knowledge but to process suspicious transactions, it is wilful blindness and avoidance of knowledge.
