### CHANGES TO BOARD AND COMMITTEE COMPOSITION
HSBC Holdings plc ('HSBC' or the 'Company') has today announced the appointment of Wei Sun Christianson (aged 69) as an Independent non-executive Director and member of the Group Risk Committee and the Nomination and Corporate Governance Committee with effect from 1 January 2026.

Wei Sun brings extensive banking and regulatory experience gained over a 30-year international career. Wei Sun most recently served as a Senior Advisor at Morgan Stanley, a role she assumed following her retirement from Morgan Stanley in 2022. Her final executive role at Morgan Stanley was Co-CEO, Asia Pacific and she also served as CEO, Morgan Stanley China from 2006 to 2022.

Prior to Morgan Stanley, she held senior regulatory roles at the Hong Kong Securities and Futures Commission where she was involved in the drafting of the regulatory structure that would enable the companies of the People's Republic of China to be listed outside China.

In line with the UK and Hong Kong Corporate Governance Codes, the Board have determined that Wei Sun is independent. In making that determination, the Board have concluded that there are no other relationships or circumstances which are likely to affect her judgements and that any relationships or circumstances which could appear to do so are not considered to be material.

Commenting on the appointment, HSBC's Group Chair, Brendan Nelson, said:

"Wei Sun is a highly regarded and experienced business leader, with deep banking knowledge and experience in HSBC's strategically important markets, including Hong Kong and Mainland China. This experience will be an asset to the Board. We look forward to welcoming her to the Board in the new year."
