The banking industry is a cornerstone of the world wide economy, primarily due to the unique nature of its primary product—money. This sector has long held a central role within society and continues to attract considerable interest from potential investors. However, investing in the banking industry is not without its challenges. Market volatility, regulatory compliance costs, and geopolitical uncertainties can profoundly impact the industry’s profitability and stability. Being among the biggest banks in the world, HSBC provides financial services such as personal banking, wealth management, and corporate finance in over 60 countries. This is an excellent example of an analysis of the banking sector. The essay lists changes in HSBC’s income statement between 2022 and 2023 and analyses them using vertical and horizontal analysis, ratio analysis, segment reporting analysis, and benchmarking. Through these analyses, the essay aims to see HSBC’s capacity to face banking crises and provide a few suggestions for investors.
