The London-based banking conglomerate said last month that it was con- sidering selling off its card operations here because the business does not mesh with its focus of serving wealthy individuals and internation- ally minded commercial customers. On Monday, Reuters reported that HSBC Chief Executive Officer Stuart Gulliver told reporters at a World Econo- mic Forum conference in Jakarta that if it cannot find a buyer, HSBC intends to put the card business "into rundown." "We need to change the shape of our business," Gulliver said. Experts have estimated that HSBC could fetch a 12.5% premium on the portfolio, which consists private-label, co-branded and affinity cards. Some observers have suggested that major players such as Capital One Fi- nancial Corp., Bank of America Corp. and JPMorgan Chase & Co., could be interested in parts of the portfolio. Others have speculated that the card assets could draw interest from foreign banks looking to establish a stronger retail presence in the U.S. As part of its strategic review, HSBC has also said it is considering selling off retail branches that are outside of major metropolitan mar- kets. -- 人就是要 見賢思齊!! -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 220.136.85.239
