HSBC Director

In February 2020, Jorge Arce assumed the position of CEO of HSBC México. Two years later, in January 2022, he was also appointed president of the institution’s Board of Directors. In these roles, he has led key initiatives to strengthen the institution’s position in the Mexican market, aligned with the bank’s global strategy.

One of his main responsibilities has been to implement a business model focused on wealth clients and large companies. This approach responds to HSBC’s global restructuring, which seeks to consolidate its presence outside the United Kingdom and Hong Kong, as explained by the group’s global CEO, Georges Elhedery.
