https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HSBC

"3rd largest non-state owned bank in the world"

"HSBC has offices, branches and subsidiaries in 57 countries and territories across Africa, Asia, Oceania, Europe, North America, and South America, serving around 39 million customers"

It may be theoretically British but it's not one of the biggest banks here and the majority of its activity is overseas (except for the money laundering).

(no I'm not a customer, shareholder or employee)

Wow, larger than expected and shows I should do more than a 30 skim of search results. I just saw bank and headquarter in London.

See other response, they are bigger than I thought

Nah, that user's kind of a dick.

Yeah... I just read his other responses in this topic, originally I only read the one he replied to me with which he seemed decent. His other messages here are just toxic and I agree with your assessment.
