HSBC admits huge Swiss bank data theft
HSBC has offered an unreserved apology to customers
About 24,000 clients of HSBC's private banking operation in Switzerland had personal details stolen by a former employee, the company has admitted.
In December, HSBC said that just 10 account holders were affected by the theft, which happened three years ago.
The information stolen concerns 15,000 accounts that are still active. Another 9,000 accounts have been closed since the theft.
HSBC says that it does not think the data can be used to access accounts.
"We deeply regret this situation and unreservedly apologise to our clients for this threat to their privacy," said Alexandre Zeller, chief executive of HSBC Private Bank (Suisse).
"We are determined to protect our clients' interests and are taking every necessary measure to do so, actively contacting all our clients with Swiss-based accounts," he said.
The former employee, Herve Falciani, who worked in HSBC's IT division, fled to France while under investigation in Switzerland.
French authorities subsequently seized the data, and then passed it to the Swiss Federal Prosecutor.
Switzerland's financial and banking regulator said it had launched "formal administrative proceedings against HSBC" over the security breach, adding that the stolen data was "extensive".
HSBC, which first learnt of a data breach in December 2008, said it had since invested 100m Swiss francs ($93.3m; £62.3m) to upgrade and improve the security of its data systems.
Mr Zeller said, however, that it was "still unclear how Falciani managed to steal the information".
He said that HSBC had only become aware of the extent of the leak after Swiss authorities received the information from France and then alerted the bank on 3 March.
HSBC said that the account holders were based in several European countries, including Britain.
