The 'Hexagon' flies higher

HSBC, the UK's largest bank and the third largest in the world, had a[nother] bumper result in the first half of 2004, with profits reaching GBP5bn (USD9.3bn) for the period. As a former long-term employee I try to follow its activities as closely as I can, not least because I have a financial stake.

(The 'Hexagon' is the HSBC corporate symbol)
