Fubon Bank’s Hong Kong subsidiary opens first mainland China branch in Shenzhen

The branch is set to focus on specialised cross-border financing for tech corporations targeting overseas expansion

Fubon Bank (Hong Kong) has opened its first branch outside its home market, moving into mainland China to tap surging cross-border business opportunities as competition among foreign lenders in the Greater Bay Area intensifies.

“The Greater Bay Area is one of China’s wealthiest and most dynamic regions, housing industry leaders and fast-growing enterprises,” said Tsai Ming-chung, chairman of Fubon Bank (Hong Kong).

“As industrial upgrading accelerates and corporate demand for overseas expansion continues to unlock, opening our Shenzhen branch is the right step at the right time to capture market opportunities.”

The bank is a wholly owned unit of Taipei-based Fubon Financial Holding, one of Taiwan’s largest financial conglomerates.
