Shaping the future of philanthropy
For more than 65 years, we’ve been helping wealthy individuals’ and families’ pursuit of important social causes – in turn we’ve helped the growth of a thriving philanthropic society.
We believe your philanthropy plans and charitable structures belong at the heart of your overall wealth management strategy. With that in mind, our specialists work with you and your advisers, providing advice and support to guide the development of your philanthropy.
We support you every step of the way, from initial vision and planning through to implementation and ongoing management of your charitable trusts and foundations.
In partnership all the way
You may already be involved in charitable projects. You might be intending simply to give to a charity or leave money in a will. You may have an ambitious goal but be unsure about the best means to achieve it. Or you may be guided only by broad intentions. In every case, we can work in partnership with you to build a philanthropic strategy. We provide a tailored service based on sound philanthropic practices and supported by the global capabilities of the HSBC Group.

Realising your vision through strategic philanthropy
We recognise that your philanthropy is driven by your individual passions, essential to your personal growth and that of your family. A strategic approach, with researched, planned and directed activities built around the issues you feel passionate about, is likely to achieve significantly more for the causes you support.
If you are already engaged in philanthropy, there can be considerable value in taking a fresh, objective look at your strategy. By reviewing your activities, programmes, projects and grants, you can make sure they remain closely aligned with your vision.
