Ghai started at HSBC in 2007 as a premier wealth relationship manager, where she was responsible for the non-resident Indian (NRI) portfolio.

During her tenure, she progressed through several senior assignments in the organisation, covering banking operations, international client services, and wealth management.

Immediately prior to her new appointment, Ghai headed International Hub for the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region within HSBC International Wealth and Personal Banking.

That post focused on international wealth management services for clients with cross-border banking needs.

Earlier in her career, Ghai held positions at Motilal Oswal Financial Services and Dawnay Day AV Securities, working across financial services and investment businesses. Her professional background covers private banking, wealth management, and international financial services.

Her promotion follows a series of regional leadership appointments finalised by HSBC Private Bank in August across its India, Singapore, and China-facing businesses.

Under those changes, Vivek Pandohi was assigned to lead the Global India franchise in the Middle East, while Harjeet Singh became senior desk head for Global India in Singapore.

In Singapore, the bank also appointed Lay Hong Tan, recruited from UBS Singapore, as desk head for the Singapore market, alongside Jay See, who joined as desk head for the Offshore China Market.
