The new outlook reflects "the extraordinary diversification of the business profile, which provides a substantial earnings cushion to offset the volatility of individual business lines and geographies," S&P said in a statement.

"The earnings mix means that HSBC is managing to produce high-quality group earnings even when individual markets suffer setbacks or hit difficult conditions," S&P said.

The outlook change also reflects HSBC's unique blend of potentially high-growth emerging market activities with a range of more mature businesses, and a strong enterprise risk management framework, "which is remarkably integrated for such a global group," S&P said.& i% s& H7 j/ h/ t m, r
