BEA marks 40 years in Shenzhen with new Futian flagship

The new branch offers banking and wealth management services.

The Bank of East Asia (BEA) and its mainland subsidiary, BEA China, marked their 40th year in Shenzhen with the opening of a new flagship outlet in Futian.

BEA first set up a representative office in Shenzhen in 1985, later upgrading it to a full branch in 1987. 

The bank said its continued expansion in the city supports cross-boundary financial services and contributes to the Guangdong–Hong Kong–Macao Greater Bay Area’s (GBA) development.

Located in Futian’s business district near the high-speed rail station, the new branch offers banking and wealth management services for clients travelling between Shenzhen and Hong Kong.

Co-Chief Executive Brian Li said BEA is focused on strengthening collaboration between its Shenzhen and Hong Kong teams to deliver seamless services across both cities.

BEA China Chief Executive Bi Ming-qiang added that Shenzhen remains central to the bank’s mainland strategy, with six outlets across the city serving as a key link between the mainland and Hong Kong.
