HONG KONG--HSBC Holdings PLC (HBC) said Wednesday it is selling its entire stake in Ping An Insurance (Group) Co. of China Ltd. (2318.HK) to Thailand's Charoen Pokphand Group for HK$72.74 billion (US$9.39 billion).

The U.K.-based lender plans to sell its 15.57% stake in China's second-largest life insurer after China Life Insurance Co. to wholly owned units the Thai conglomerate, HSBC said in a statement.

The sales price, which equates to HK$59 per Ping An share, will be funded by cash and a loan facility from China Development Bank Corp.'s Hong Kong branch, HSBC said. The sales price represents a 2% premium to Ping An's closing share price of HK$57.65 in Hong Kong on Tuesday.

"This transaction represents further progress in the execution of the group's strategy," HSBC Chief Executive Stuart Gulliver said in the statement. "China remains a key market for the group and we will strengthen our focus on growing our own operations and building on our long-term strategic banking partnership with [Bank of Communications Co.]"
