[edit] History

HSBC Insurance Brokers was originated by the insurance business of Antony Gibbs, the old-established London merchant bank. Its insurance business was operated since 1808. In 1973, The Hongkong and Shanghai Banking Corporation obtained a share in Antony Gibbs, and took full ownership in 1980. The bulk of this business was later subsumed into the Group, but the insurance connection continues as HSBC Insurance Brokers.
