The staff of the Hong Kong agency of the Dutch East-Indies Commercial Bank (Nederlandsch-Indische Handelsbank). My grandfather Pieter Marks (1893-1981; he's somewhat in the middle of the front row) was employed there twice, the last time ca. 1923-1928. He also worked for the bank's agency in Shanghai. This picture as taken (in a studio I presume) around 1919 or so (my grandfather left from the Netherlands for his first assignment in the East in 1915)

Year of the photo?
According to the "Directory & Chronicle...." from 1919 to 1929, Mr. P. Marks worked as manager at the HK branch during 1921-1923 and again during 1926-1928. Therefore, can we say "around 1919" would more likely be "no earlier than 1921"?
