TD Bank is one of the top ten banks in the United States, with more than 800 million customers and more than 1,300 branches. Since CCIP's founding, TD Bank's Main Street, Flushing, branch has been supporting the program, providing short-term account services for the exchange visitors to facilitate each student's life and finances in New York.
On the evening of July 28, students had the opportunity to visit the local branch and were warmly welcomed by Service Manager Jimmy Lee. After going around the office, the students and Mr. Lee had a discussion and exchanged points of view with regards to the daily operations of a bank, the banking system in America vs. that in Hong Kong, and the reasons for the success of TD Bank.
"Mr. Lee's comparison between Hong Kong and the US banking system is a unique and very accurate analysis. I had no chance to learn these ideas in school, so our dialogue will be very helpful for my future work in the banking industry," said Wilson Wu, a student leader from Hang Seng Management College majoring in banking and finance.
"TD Bank is so successful, which is largely attributed to its customer service," said Monica Wong, a student at the Macau University of Science and Technology, majoring in business administration. "I really appreciate that Mr. Lee took his personal time to show us around and give us insights."
Most students in banking and finance-related majors, and a few nonbusiness professional students, also broadened their knowledge.
