As head of Debt Capital Markets for HSBC Australia, Henderson will report locally to Gavin Powell, head of Global Markets, Australia, and functionally to Rod Sykes, head of Debt Capital Markets Origination for Asia-Pacific.

HSBC said Henderson’s appointment will support the continued expansion of the Australian DCM team, with the
addition of further headcount planned in 2011.

Powell said Henderson’s appointment will support the continued growth of HSBC’s DCM business in Australia by bringing his extensive Asian expertise onshore to this market.
