Trade finance

As one of the major players in international trade finance, HSBC Group is well positioned to meet the demands of investors for cross-border trade finance assets. In addition to our trade services for small to medium size businesses, we have the ability to arrange structured trade finance programmes through the securitisation of asset receivables from a selected group of Muslim majority countries.

Project finance

Islamic project finance is becoming an increasingly popular option in the Muslim world. With the Shariah structuring knowledge of HSBC Amanah and the resources and expertise of HSBCs Project and Export Finance division, we offer a unique combination to corporate issuers.

Structured finance

HSBC Amanah is able to offer structured solutions in a variety of sectors, with a special focus on aviation, shipping and real estate. We have pioneered credit-enhanced structures in the area of asset finance for markets in the developing world. Clients are offered exposure to assets in the Americas, Europe, North Africa, Asia Pacific and Middle East.

Capital market

With the introduction of sukuk instruments, corporate and sovereign issuers can raise Shariah compliant debt from Islamic and conventional institutional investors. HSBC Amanah is privileged to have played a key role in the growth of this sector. Since arranging the first international Sukuk issuance for the government of Malaysia in 2002, we have brought a number of sovereigns and Corporates to a nascent transnational Islamic debt capital market.

Corporate advisory

HSBC Amanah offers a developing range of corporate finance advisory capabilities. We specialize in Shariah compliant debt solutions, private placements, acquisitions and corporate restructuring.
