The HSBC Group’s relationship with Russia dates back to 1918. In 2000 after the Group's acquisition of Republic National Bank of New York, its subsidiary, established in Russia in 1996, changed its name to OOO HSBC Bank (RR), a Russian incorporated bank, 100 per cent indirectly-owned by HSBC Bank plc.

HSBC is committed to the Russian market where its focus is on developing and supporting the Group’s Russian and international client base.

From its modern premises in the heart of Moscow, OOO HSBC Bank (RR) provides domestic and multinational corporate and institutional customers with a high level of service in all areas of their banking needs.
