They say money talks. But did you know it also tells stories? These banknotes, from our archives, offer a glimpse into the history of global trade. Each note represents a chapter in the story of how goods, services and cultures have flowed around the world. Check out the full exhibition, which looks at the rich and varied history of our Hong Kong banknote issue, from the earliest designs to today’s modern Hong Kong dollar notes. https://grp.hsbc/6041tNiCN #HSBC #GlobalTrade

History often reveals itself through the most unexpected mediums. These #banknotes are more than currency—they are markers of #globaltrade, cultural exchange, and economic evolution. Each design reflects the pulse of its time, offering lessons on resilience and transformation in the world of #finance. A reminder that even money has a story to tell.
Your banknotes truly are a fascinating reflection of history and global trade. It's incredible to see how they encapsulate the narratives of goods, services, and diverse cultures shaping our world. Thank you for sharing this intriguing exhibition!
These post remind me of my 2 day orientation at HSBC which is brilliant 🤩 Glad it’s mandatory for contractors too because those 2 days instill a sense of pride & legacy about the Bank and how you as an individual participate in the wider organisation and global ecosystem. A great idea which I haven’t experienced at any other bank I’ve freelanced at.
Wow, this is fascinating! It's incredible how much history and culture can be captured in something as everyday as a banknote. I never really thought about how each note can tells a story of its own, reflecting the times and the trade dynamics of its era. It sounds like a unique way to explore the evolution of global trade and the role Hong Kong has played in it. Thanks for sharing this! #CuriousMind #BanknoteStories
Wow, such a great journey from where money has come from to where it’s going into the digital world and how trade has transformed over the years. I’m interested in conversations about the history of money and trade, if you share the same passion for about it please connect with me and let’s share ideas and dreams 🤗
It's fascinating how each banknote carries its own unique story, reflecting the evolution of trade and culture.

We are currently living in the last great age of banknotes. I believe 20 years from today banknotes will be completely replaced by digital payments.

Very informative and good to know the progression of the HKK currency notes. Interesting !
⠀ I'm a slave, for you.
1wMoney does not exist. Inheritance does not exist. You made it all up so that you can exploit others. I often cry a lot because of the ways of the world, I am forced to live in. Forced by being born without concern. And then, given this wornderful gift of being alive, my life's worth is only defined by how good of a slave I am. It is being defined by companies like yours. You, and others alike, decided that I will be born into slavery and that I will not be allowed to live my life. And there's nothing I can do about it, but being ective on social media. Your vintage banknote is only good to help with my running nose to me .
