The head of UK investment banking at HSBC has quit, the latest top-level change at the bank as it refocuses on corporate finance in its home market.

Rob Ritchie, the former Goldman Sachs executive hired by HSBC two years ago as co-head of its UK global banking business, left the bank earlier this month, according to two sources with knowledge of the move.
