This was reportedly conveyed by Malcolm Wagget, Chief Operating Officer, Global Resourcing, South Asia, HSBC, to Chief Minister Y. S. Rajasekhara Reddy when he called on the latter on Tuesday.

Two of HSBC's six facilities in South Asia are located in Andhra Pradesh. Situated in Hyderabad and Visakhapatnam, these facilities employ over 7,000 professionals and this number is likely to go up to 10,000 by the end of 2008.

According to Mr. Wagget, the HSBC has also set up its software development centre in the city that will employ over 1,500 software professionals in two years.
