HSBC and Experian have been working
together for more than 20 years. HSBC’s decision to roll out and
launch Experian’s Connect+ product expands the relationship between
the two firms.
Chris Hawkes, global head of retail
credit risk at HSBC, told RBI: “Connect+ is being piloted
in Asia as part of the bank’s One-HSBC global banking strategy.
“Following a successful rollout in
Asia, the software will then be available to support HSBC
operations in specific regions around the world. We are not
divulging further rollout plans at this stage.”
As for the reason to select
Experian’s software, Hawkes added: “Experian is a key strategic
partner for HSBC. It knows our business, is closely aligned to the
OneHSBC strategy and is able to work with us on a global basis.

organisations before a decision was taken.”
