Stuart Thomson Gulliver (born 9 March 1959)[2][4] is a British banker, and the former group chief executive of HSBC. He was succeeded on 21 February 2018 by John Flint.

Early life and education

He was born in Derby, England, in 1959. His father Philip was a legal executive, while his mother Jean was personal assistant to the senior engineer at a local dockyard. Gulliver went to grammar school in Plymouth, Devon.[5]

Gulliver was an avid boxer while at Worcester College, Oxford, where he received a degree in jurisprudence (law). In a 2011 interview to Financial Times, Gulliver recalls his humble upbringing and his childhood aspiration, and said: "I wanted to be a barrister, but my parents couldn’t afford it".[5]

Professional career

Early career and HSBC (1980–2010)

In 1980, an HSBC executive serving in India urged him to join HSBC's elite international officer programme,[5][6][7] as it was called at that time, which paved the way for his banking career. Gulliver worked his way up in treasury and capital markets divisions,[8] rose through the ranks in the bank's Global banking and markets division,[6] and held a number of key roles in the group's operations worldwide; including postings in London, Hong Kong, Tokyo, Kuala Lumpur and the United Arab Emirates.

Gulliver was appointed to run the Asian and treasury capital markets desks from Hong Kong in the mid 1990s.

Asia-Pacific
from 1996 to 2012.

He was appointed a group general manager in 2000, and later he led the global markets division from 2002 to 2003. He moved back to London in early 2003 to co-head the group's global corporate, investment banking and markets division along with

Global Asset Management
in May 2006.

He was a director of HSBC North America Holdings Inc until May 2009; of HSBC Bank Middle East Ltd from February 2010 to May 2011; of HSBC Latin America Holdings (UK) Limited until December 2009.[10]

He is deputy chairman of the supervisory committee of HSBC Trinkaus & Burkhardt AG (since September 2007; member since May 2006); non-executive chairman and a director of HSBC France since January 2009; and chairman of HSBC Private Banking Holdings (Suisse) SA since February 2010 (Director since September 2007).[11]

He was made a director of

The Hongkong and Shanghai Banking Corporation Limited in September 2006 and has been an executive director of HSBC Holdings plc since May 2008.[12]

Group CEO of HSBC (2010–2018)

Group CEO
of HSBC Holdings plc, effective 1 January 2011.

He was also appointed the chairman of

HSBC Holdings plc.[17][18][19]

In 2011, he was included in the

50 Most Influential ranking of Bloomberg Markets
.

In 2014, he received a total of £7.6 million in pay and bonuses.[20]

In October 2017, it was announced that he will be succeeded in February 2018 by John Flint.[21]

Personal life

His primary residence is in Kensington in West London,[5] where he lives with his Australian-born second wife, Amanda "Mandy" Henricks.[22][5] He has three children from his first marriage.[5] He officially lives in Hong Kong.[23]

A 2017 tax tribunal case shows HMRC agreed that by 2002/2003 Gulliver had become non-domiciled by establishing a domicile of choice in Hong Kong, despite having returned to be resident in the UK again, for what was intended to be a period of two years. In 2015, HMRC opened an enquiry into his domicile status, since he had in fact remained UK resident.[24]

The Guardian newspaper reported that Gulliver was a client of the scandal-ridden Panamanian lawfirm Mossack Fonseca, investing bonus payments through them.[25]
