HSBC announced the appointment of Andrew Fullam as Chief Financial Officer (CFO) for the U.S. and Americas.

In this role, he will be responsible for the region’s financial operations, including accounting, regulatory reporting, stress testing and capital management.

Fullam rejoins HSBC from Wells Fargo where he served as Head of Enterprise Financial Planning & Analysis since the beginning of 2023. Based in New York, Fullam will report to Michael Roberts, CEO, US and Americas, and Kavita Mahtani, CFO, HBEU and Western Markets.

“As we navigate the dynamic landscape of the financial industry, Andrew’s wealth of experience and deep expertise in corporate finance will be instrumental in driving sustainable growth across our businesses in the US and Americas,” said Roberts. “His understanding of HSBC combined with his existing relationships built over 17 years across the region will enable him to make an immediate impact when he steps into the role.”

Previously Fullam spent nearly two decades at HSBC in domestic and international positions in New York, London and Dubai. His extensive tenure included leadership roles in strategic planning, stress testing, and US transformation, as well as regional CFO for Commercial Banking and Global Banking and Markets. Notably, he served as Interim CFO for the Americas in 2019.

Fullam holds a Master of Business Administration from Columbia University and a Bachelor of Science from Washington and Lee University.
