HSBC has seen its quarterly profits jump by 10% as the UK-based banking giant embarks on one of the biggest shakeups in its 159-year history.
The firm said its pre-tax profits rose to $8.5bn (£6.6bn) in the three months to the end of September, beating analysts’ expectations.
It comes just days after HSBC’s new boss announced a major overhaul of the company.
The firm will be split geographically into eastern and western markets amid increasing geopolitical tensions and a need to cut costs.
