HSBC has appointed Tony Fulton to the key role of head of corporate banking for Lancashire, Cumbria & Northern Ireland.

Based at HSBC’s Commercial Centres in Preston, Carlisle and Belfast, Tony will focus on supporting businesses with a turnover between £6.5m and £350m, in addition to ensuring that HSBC continues to meet the needs of its commercial clients.

Tony has been with HSBC since 2013 and moves to Lancashire from a similar role covering the Liverpool, Cheshire, North Wales & North Staffordshire areas. He takes over the position from Jason Gledhill, who is moving to a new senior position within HSBC.

Tony has over 35 years’ experience in the banking industry in the North of England and prior to joining HSBC was with Barclays and Santander in Manchester. Tony’s varied career has seen him undertake roles in Branch Management, Retail, Commercial and Corporate Banking.

HSBC’s Lancashire and Cumbria Commercial division boasts a significant team of Commercial, Corporate, Agricultural and Local Business Managers with both domestic and international focus.

Tony said: “I’m delighted to be moving to such a key geographical area for HSBC. Lancashire and Cumbria offers a diverse economy and HSBC works with companies here from across the spectrum. My predecessor, Jason has done a fantastic job over the past three years and I look forward to continuing his good work. I am born and bred in Lancashire and am keen to get out and meet with both the business and professional services communities. I have been impressed with the quality and breadth of companies I have met so far in the area.

“We have a strong and dedicated team, and we are keen to use our expertise to help those businesses who already trade, or aspire to trade overseas, as well as those focusing on the agricultural and domestic market.” David Beaty, HSBC’s Regional Director for the North of the UK, said “I am thrilled to welcome Tony to this important role. He is highly experienced and understands the challenges and opportunities facing SMEs in the current market. It is important that we are able to invest even more time talking to our customers so we can better understand their business, the issues they face and their ambitions, and appointments such as Tony’s enable us to do that.”
