It is a UK/ Hong Kong bank. It was set-up in HK during the British rule over there. Standard Chartered bank is the other one. Nevertheless, it is on of the best banks in the world.

The bank is listed on the London Stock Exchange but to say where is it from is kind of ubiquitous

There really isn't a simple answer for that. It's headquarters is in london. But it is a Hong Kong Singapore thing.

Best thing to do is read this.

Samya so far and what I understand, HSBC is a joint venture between UK and Hong Kong banks. But in the end you could say HSBC is from UK.
