Before taking the helm at HSBC Vietnam, Evans served as HSBC’s Regional Head of Commercial Banking, International Markets in Asia-Pacific, covering Bangladesh, Mauritius, New Zealand, Maldives, Sri Lanka, Taiwan, Thailand and Vietnam. He was formerly HSBC’s Regional Head of Middle Market Enterprises in Asia Pacific, where he covered 19 markets, Regional Head of Global Trade and Receivables Finance and Chief Operating Officer of HSBC’s Commercial Banking business in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region, overseeing 10 countries.

Together, we will continue to play HSBC’s part in helping Vietnam — already one of the world’s most dynamic economies — reach its immense potential.” 

“I would like to congratulate Pham Hong Hai for the incredible impact he had during his time as CEO of HSBC Vietnam,” said Evans. “My commitment is to build on this platform for strong future growth and capitalize on HSBC’s position as Vietnam’s leading international bank, creating long-term value for our people and customers.”
