Asia has been a cornerstone of cross-border flows this year, driven by increased activity across the Middle East – Asia corridor and a surge in local currency debt issuance. Our long-established MTN & CD platform in Hong Kong has continued to leverage our salesforce distribution and rates derivatives capabilities to provide best-in-class services, addressing our issuers' clients funding needs in any currencies while diversifying their investors base. Winning the APAC MTN House award alongside our global title is a testament to our commitment to deliver excellence both regionally and globally.
