Chuo Trust to market HSBC funds, services at branches in Japan

Article Abstract:

Chuo Trust & Banking Co. has struck an agreement with HSBC Holdings PLC to sell HSBC-developed mutual funds and asset-management services at its branches in Japan. The agreement will also result to the development of securitized real estate-related products by the two groups, according to Chuo Trust. While signalling the latest tie-up between a foreign and Japanese institution, the deal also reflects the interest obtained by Japanese banks from international firms following the deregulation in the country's financial sector. And aside from the sale of mutual funds in Chuo Trust's 110 branches, the agreement also states that management of the assets, as well as advising on Chuo Trust's pension funds global management, will be the responsibility of HSBC, while Chuo Trust will handle administration and fund sales
