Common pain points with this format:

Transactions Split Across Multiple Tables

HSBC statements split transactions into separate tables by type (deposits, withdrawals, checks, online transfers, etc.), each with different column layouts. Manually merging these into a single timeline is tedious and error-prone. We combine all tables into one chronological list while preserving transaction type information.

Missing Year in Dates

HSBC Hong Kong statements omit the year from transaction dates (e.g., "15/03" instead of "15/03/2025"), which makes it impossible to sort or reconcile without guessing. We infer the correct year from the statement period and surrounding context.

Multiple Dates per Transaction

HSBC statements show multiple dates per transaction (transaction date, posting date, value date), and it is not always obvious which one to use for bookkeeping. We consistently extract the posting date so your records match your bank balance.

Currency Symbols Breaking Numeric Parsing

These statements embed currency symbols (e.g., "$1,234.56") directly in amount cells, which breaks numeric parsing in Excel and most CSV importers. We strip these symbols so amounts import as clean numbers.

Currency Only Shown in Column Header

HSBC Hong Kong statements display the currency symbol only in the column header, not with each amount. We track the currency context throughout the statement to ensure all amounts are properly labeled with the correct currency.

Blank Dates for Same-Day Transactions

The bank's statements only print the date on the first transaction of each day — the rest have blank date cells. If you paste this into a spreadsheet, most rows will have no date at all. We automatically fill in the missing dates from context.

Common pain points with this format:

Dates Crossing Year Boundary

HSBC statements contain transactions from two different calendar years (e.g., December and January) but omit the year from dates. Without the statement period for context, there is no way to know which year each transaction belongs to. We analyze the date sequence and statement period to assign the correct year to every transaction.
