"I have completed an internship at Asset, Liability & Capital Management at HSBC. ALCM is a part of Asia-Pacific finance and provides oversight throughout the Asia-Pacific region in areas including capital allocation, regulatory development, liquidity initiatives and due diligence. I personally was responsible for daily HKMA Liquidity Coverage Ratio reporting and analysis under the Basel III framework. The work itself was very rewarding. I got to learn a lot about how the balance sheet of a multinational bank works, and the liquidity and funding risk associated with such an enormous balance sheet. The people at HSBC are really nice, too. My colleagues taught me to do the reports from scratch and always gave me valuable advice. They kept me well fed with snacks, too!
All in all, the experience at ALCM HSBC provided me with precious insights into the banking industry, and the necessary skills and knowledge to advance my career. I really enjoyed it!”
