HSBC Holdings, one of the world's leading banking groups, has repurchased 1.9 million shares. The group's revenues are primarily driven by retail banking and wealth management (42.3%), commercial banking (31.8%), and investment, financing, and market banking (25.9%). At the end of 2024, HSBC had USD 1,654.9 billion in current deposits and USD 930.6 billion in current credits.

HSBC Holdings plc (HSBC), one of the world's leading banking groups, has announced the repurchase of 1.9 million shares. The repurchase was executed on July 1, 2025, as part of the company's ongoing buy-back program. The shares were purchased for cancellation from Morgan Stanley & Co. International plc, with the transaction taking place on the London Stock Exchange, Aquis Exchange, Cboe Europe Limited, and Turquoise [2].

The total number of shares repurchased stands at 1.9 million, with a volume-weighted average price of £8.7047 per share. The highest price paid per share was £8.7360, while the lowest price was £8.6750. This repurchase brings the total number of shares repurchased since the commencement of the buy-back program on May 6, 2025, to approximately 198.1 million shares for a total consideration of US$2.311 billion [2].

HSBC's current share capital, following the cancellation of the repurchased shares, will consist of 17.48 billion ordinary shares with voting rights. The company's treasury holds no ordinary shares. The repurchase is in line with HSBC's strategy to enhance shareholder value and optimize capital structure [2].

HSBC's financial performance is driven by three key segments: retail banking and wealth management (42.3%), commercial banking (31.8%), and investment, financing, and market banking (25.9%). At the end of 2024, the company reported USD 1.654.9 billion in current deposits and USD 930.6 billion in current credits [1].
