Being the 7th largest bank in the world and the largest in the whole of Europe this information alone will tell you how big this entity is. If you are not familiar with the routing number, let me give you a quick description. This is just to give you a broader overview of this matter.
HSBC Routing Number:
The HSBC routing number has nine digits. Those numbers are not just phone number database random numbers placed just so a computer can only read it.
021001088
Those nine-digit numbers will tell you of the financial entities’ location and where it is being processed across the US. Once you learn how to read routing numbers, this will be more efficient for you.
To start, the first four digits will tell you of the specific state where the bank is located. If you are not familiar with this information, there are 12 Federal Reserve States that use specific codes. Here are the codes for your reference:
01 Boston. Boston. Connecticut (excluding Fairfield County), Massachusetts, Maine, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, and Vermont
02 New York. New York State, twelve counties in northern New Jersey, Puerto Rico, Virgin Islands, and Fairfield County in Connecticut.
03 the District of Philadelphia. Eastern Pennsylvania, southern New Jersey, and all of Delaware
04 the District of Cleveland. Ohio, western Pennsylvania, eastern Kentucky, and the northern panhandle of West Virginia.
05 Richmond. Maryland, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, and most of West Virginia.
06 Atlanta. Alabama, Florida, Georgia, and parts of Louisiana, Mississippi, and Tennessee
