HSBC Bank Australia
HSBC Bank Australia Limited is the Australian banking subsidiary of the global HSBC Group (HSBC Holdings plc), operating as an Authorised Deposit-taking Institution (ADI) regulated by APRA and ASIC. It is a wholly owned, shareholder-owned bank (not a customer-owned mutual) offering home loans, everyday and savings accounts, credit cards, term deposits, and business and international banking across Australia. As a designated data holder under Australia's Consumer Data Right (CDR / Open Banking), HSBC Australia exposes a public, unauthenticated Product Reference Data (PRD) API plus the full authenticated CDR Banking surface - accounts, balances, transactions, direct debits, scheduled payments, and payees - conforming to the DSB Consumer Data Standards CDR Banking API (v1.36.0). The public product endpoints are on https://public.ob.hsbc.com.au/cds-au/v1 and the consumer-authorized endpoints on the MTLS host https://mtls.ob.hsbc.com.au/cds-au/v1, accessible only to Accredited Data Recipients under the CDR ADR model. HSBC is presently a data holder only and is not accredited to receive third-party banking data. Beyond the Australian CDR surface, HSBC Group operates a global developer portal at develop.hsbc.com covering commercial/corporate banking APIs and non-Australian Open Banking markets.
Real signal across most facets with visible, nameable gaps — the contract exists but is thin, or the portal is good while governance and commercial terms are absent.
API Evangelist profiles HSBC Bank Australia the way a machine reads it — 15 machine-readable artifacts across 8 APIs, pulled from the provider's own public surface and indexed so a developer, an analyst, or an AI agent can evaluate it against every other provider on the network.
Every provider in the network is reduced to the same set of machine-readable artifacts — OpenAPI contracts, event specifications, GraphQL schemas, runnable collections, pricing and rate-limit signals, security posture, OAuth scopes, and the agent surfaces (MCP servers and skills) that let software drive the API on its own. We profile them because the interface is the part of a company you can actually inspect: it is a truer signal of what a provider does than any marketing page. From those artifacts we compute the Kin Score — HSBC Bank Australia scores 45.5/100 (developing), with a separate agent-readiness read of 69/100 (agent native). The full breakdown is below, followed by every artifact we hold — each card links through to its machine-readable definition on apis.io.
Kin Score
This is the API Evangelist rating — a single, repeatable read computed from the artifacts on this page. Green fill is points earned; the red track is points possible, so every bar shows earned-versus-possible at a glance.
How we profile HSBC Bank Australia
Each block below is one kind of artifact we hold for HSBC Bank Australia. For each we say what it is and why it earns a place in the profile, then list every one we've indexed — capped at two rows, scroll within the panel for the rest.
APIs 8
Each API is captured as its own OpenAPI definition — every operation, parameter, and response. This is the single most useful machine-readable description of what an API does, and it's what lets us score, lint, mock, and generate against it without asking the provider for anything.
Individual APIs this provider publishes, each with its own machine-readable definition.

Arazzo Workflows 2
Real integrations are rarely a single call. Arazzo describes the multi-step sequences — auth, then create, then confirm — so both a human and an agent can follow the choreography, not just the endpoints.

Model Context Protocol servers expose these APIs directly to AI agents. We profile them because agent-native access is the fastest-growing way this provider's capabilities actually get used.

MCP SERVERSecurity Posture 2
Authentication, domain security, vulnerability disclosure, and trust-center signals — the evidence that a provider takes security seriously enough to document it. We profile it because you can't govern what you can't see.
Authentication, domain security, vulnerability disclosure, and trust-center signals.
Scopes 1
OAuth scopes are the vocabulary of least-privilege access. Profiling them shows exactly what an integration — or an agent acting on a user's behalf — is allowed to do.
OAuth scopes governing access to this provider's APIs.
Agentic Access 1
An x-agentic-access contract marks which operations are safe for an agent to run on its own and which need a human in the loop. It is the difference between an API an agent can use and one it can use safely.
