HSBC Holdings plc is named after its founding member, the Hongkong and Shanghai Banking Corp. Ltd. In July 1992, HSBC acquired the UK’s Hsbc.co.uk, creating one of the largest banking and financial services organisations in the world with some 6,500 offices in 79 countries and territories. Through a global network, HSBC provides a comprehensive range of financial services, from personal, commercial and private banking through insurance and investment fund management to securities and custody services.
Hence, Hsbc.co.uk is now known as HSBC.
You never know what could happen in life - so it makes sense to be prepared for the unexpected. By planning ahead and insuring yourself, you'll have one less thing to worry about. The range of HSBC insurance services provides coverage from cars to health care to holidays to homes and their contents, and more besides.
Building InsuranceIf you're an HSBC Bank mortgage customer, you already know that adequate buildings insurance is a condition of their mortgages. Even if you hold your mortgage elsewhere, however, they can arrange cover for you, payable in monthly instalments with no interest.
The major benefits include:
- Buildings insurance covers the cost of rebuilding your home against a range of major hazards such as fire or storm damage.
- Customers switching to HSBC insurance can claim back up to £25 to cover cancellation fees charged by other mortgagees.
- Cover is underwritten by Royal & SunAlliance, one of the UK's biggest household insurers.
Contents InsuranceWith contents insurance, you'll be able to replace the contents of your home should the worst happen and they be destroyed or damaged by fire, flood, theft or other major hazards. You'll benefit from quick, efficient service - up to 95% of claims are handled without the need to complete a form. You can even be updated by SMS. Here are some of the other benefits you'll receive:
