Description

Ready to formalise your Start-up idea? One of the most critical steps in launching a legitimate business is setting up a dedicated bank account.

Join us for an essential, practical workshop in collaboration with HSBC Business Banking Specialists: Hattie and Feroz.

This workshop goes beyond general advice, offering direct insights and answering your specific banking queries with experts from a global financial institution.

It will cover the essentials, including:

  • The Critical 'Why': Why is a dedicated business bank account essential for your startup, and how does it differ from a personal account?
  • Credibility & Compliance: Learn how setting up a business account enhances credibility with customers and suppliers, and helps keep personal and business finances legally separate.
  • Simplifying Finance: Understand how a separate account simplifies tracking and management of business transactions for tax and accounting purposes.
  • Global Reach, Local Support: How can a global bank like HSBC support your startup business, whether you plan to operate locally in the UK or scale internationally?
  • Accessing Services: Discover the essential banking services, features, and potential savings or investment options that safeguard your funds and support future growth.

Hattie and Feroz will be on hand to answer your questions and provide direct guidance on the application process and what you need to know as a student entrepreneur.
