The Jewel at the Changi airport is becoming a lifestyle hub for Singaporeans, the bank said.

HSBC Bank (Singapore), part of HSBC, has opened its “Jade Centre” at the Jewel Changi Airport, the development near the city-state's airport, which caters to affluent customers who live in and or work in the jurisdiction.

The centre is the second of its kind for the banking group, it said in a statement late last week. 

“While they may be based here, many of our customers have studied or worked overseas, and have regional business interests. They tend to look beyond Singapore for investment opportunities and lifestyle experiences,” Anurag Mathur, head of retail banking and wealth management, HSBC Bank (Singapore), said. “We expect the new Jade Centre will be well-received given its strategic location within Jewel at the Changi Airport, which is fast emerging as the lifestyle hub for Singaporeans living in the East and international travellers.”

Jade is HSBC’s affluent proposition for individuals who have at least S$1.2 million in cash and/or investments with the bank. Jade provides personalised investment solutions and advice, and a global concierge service.
