 |
 | talented, committed and motivated people |
 | relationship banking underpinned by world-leading Customer Relationship Management capabilities |
 | strong banking franchises with large customer bases in core markets |
 | leveraging wealth management capabilities to expand internationally |
 | disciplined financial, risk and capital management |
