Bumper bonuses at HSBC do not reflect China risk

Weakness in the region makes hefty payouts increasingly difficult to justify. Despite the challenges posed by the China risk, HSBC continues to offer bumper bonuses to its employees. This has raised concerns among investors and stakeholders about the sustainability and appropriateness of such high payouts.

As the global economy faces uncertainties and volatility, HSBC must carefully consider the potential impact of its bonus policy on its overall financial health. Balancing the need to reward employees for their hard work and performance with the need to manage risks effectively is crucial for the long-term success of the bank.
