From Crisis to Compliance: The HSBC Transformation Story, with Andy Maguire (rebroadcast)

This week, we're bringing you a rebroadcast of one of our most popular episodes of this year: a fascinating talk with Andy Maguire about his work with HSBC during a very challenging time.

Episode Summary

In 2014, Andy McGuire joined HSBC as Group Chief Operating Officer at one of the most difficult times in the bank's history. Investigations had revealed that poor control processes had led to billions in illicit funds moving through the bank, funding drug cartels and terrorists.

Andy had a key role in engineering an extensive remediation process that took years and millions of dollars. But during that process, he and his team made huge leaps forward and the transformation contributed to significant compliance innovations that still have impacts a decade later.

On this episode of BCG on Compliance, Andy takes us through HSBC’s remediation process, from “draining the swamp” with meticulous but nuanced data readiness and KYC procedures, to the failures that necessitated this transformation in the first place. We will also cover the technological process innovations Andy and his team developed during the remediation, and Andy discusses how best to use AI and machine learning in these instances. It’s a fantastic behind-the-scenes look at one of the most prominent banking compliance stories in recent history, so don’t miss it.
