HSBC Holdings Plc (HSBA.L) shares slipped 0.8% to 1,184.6 pence in early London trading despite launching 10 UAE-domiciled investment funds. The bank's strategic pivot toward Gulf wealth management—a market ripe with crypto-affluent investors—contrasts with muted investor enthusiasm.

Regional head Dinesh Sharma framed the MOVE as a long-term play for UAE's growing high-net-worth segment. Yet the tepid response suggests markets await concrete revenue metrics, due February 25. Meanwhile, crypto traders note HSBC's traditional finance push coincides with institutional demand for BTC, ETH, and SOL custody solutions in the region.
