The world's first! ICBC's total assets surpass 50 trillion yuan. President Liu Jun states, "We have not relaxed our pursuit of efficiency and quality despite the large scale."

Shanghai Securities News China Securities Network (Reporter Chang Peiqi) – The annual performance announcement for 2025 disclosed by the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China (ICBC) on the 27th shows that by the end of 2025, ICBC’s total assets reached 53.48 trillion yuan, an increase of 9.5% compared to the end of the previous year, becoming the world’s first bank to surpass 50 trillion yuan. Liu Jun, Vice Chairman and President of ICBC, stated at the 2025 annual performance release conference, “We have not relaxed our pursuit of efficiency and quality just because ICBC itself is relatively large.”

In Liu Jun’s view, a comprehensive effort should be made to build a modern financial services industry based on an asset-liability structure primarily reliant on indirect financing. He said that in the fields of new productive forces and new infrastructure, ICBC must carve out its own path.

“Finance is the blood of the modern economy. We hope the blood provided by ICBC includes Type A blood, Type B blood, and some other special types, and this blood must also be available in sufficient quantity.” Liu Jun believes that ICBC should transition from a simple capital intermediary in the past to a comprehensive service provider of a series of value factors such as capital information and efficiency.
