For customers with accounts in Canada: new USD correspondent bank details required as of 15 January 2018

Last updated: 20 November 2017

Starting 15 January 2018, wire payments containing incorrect USD correspondent bank information will no longer be re-routed and will be rejected.

On 28 September 2015, we announced that we would change our USD correspondent bank to Citibank. We encouraged you to ask anyone who sends you USD wires to update their payment instructions.

Following the announcement, any incoming wires to your Canadian account(s) that contained the incorrect USD correspondent bank information were re-routed to your account. As of 15 January, all payments with incorrect USD correspondent bank details will be rejected.

To avoid disruption to your incoming wires, please provide the following information to anyone who may send you USD wire transfers:

Correspondent Bank: Citibank
SWIFT Code: CITIUS33

Destination Bank: HSBC Bank Canada
SWIFT Code: HKBCCATT

If you have any questions, please contact your local HSBCnet Support Centre.
