Abstract
Sir John Bond, who joined HSBC (Hong Kong Shanghai Banking Corporation) in 1961 and later went on to become the bank''s Chief Executive and Chairman, was credited with transforming HSBC into the third largest bank by market value, in the world by 2004. In November 2005, HSBC announced the retirement of Bond as Chairman; and the succession of the Chief Executive Stephen Green, to the post of Chairman from May 2006. Analysts doubt whether the new chairman would be able to come out of the shadow of Bond''s legacy. The case gives an insight into the evolution of HSBC under Bond and provides the scope to discuss whether the new Chairman, Stephen Green, would be able to become as successful and as formidable a chairman as Bond. The case will also help in analysing whether Sir John Bond''s legacy is relevant at all. A structured assignment ''306-061-4'' is available to accompany this case.
