I’m delighted to be able to join such a talented and hard-working team as we continue that positive journey. We are absolutely committed to supporting the banking needs of residents in all three islands and we have some exciting plans to enhance our service for local people.

“It’s also a pleasure to have the opportunity to move with my family to such a beautiful and community-spirited location, and I’m really looking forward to playing a central role in cementing the Bank’s links with the local communities in all three islands.”

Tracy Garrad, Chief Executive Officer, HSBC Channel Islands and Isle of Man, added: “We are now in a position where the islands make an important contribution towards the overall success of HSBC globally and we see further significant opportunities here.
