Staff from HSBC’s Jersey, Guernsey and the Isle of Man teams were recognised for their performance and customer experience in a “strong showing” for the islands at an international awards initiative recently hosted by the bank.
A total of 18 staff from HSBC Channel Islands and Isle of Man were invited to attend the bank’s ‘International Wealth and Premier Banking Americas and Europe Performance Excellence Awards’ in Barcelona last month, with six being nominated and some winning awards.
