Kevin Martin

Kevin has been the lead on HSBC’s sponsorship of the Asia Out Leadership summits since 2016, convening over 150 senior regional business leaders to engage and progress big business on the importance of LGBT+ inclusion and recently gathered 15 financial industry Executive Sponsors to collectively plan on driving greater LGBT+ inclusion in Asia-Pacific. He has been instrumental in ensuring a proactive leadership communications programme including video blogs, townhalls and webcasts/calls that integrate support and championing of LGBT+ and broader diversity and inclusion principles across his leadership teams and employees in the region. He has also been key in encouraging customer-focused improvements for LGBT+ persons, including the introduction of gender-neutral account titles and inclusive insurance policies. Externally, Kevin is a supporter of Hong Kong’s Community Business NGO, and was this year nominated for ‘Executive Sponsor of the Year’.
