<p>The report from The Banker said: “Chinese banks are powering ahead in the ranking but are not filling the gap left by the shrinking international banks.”</p>
<p>The global banking model has been on the retreat since the financial crisis due to a slower world economy and tighter regulatory control.</p>
<p>According to the report, ICBC aims to have 10% of its assets outside China in five years’ time.</p>
<p>The survey calls this “small in comparison with the global banks in their heyday”.</p>
<p>The UK’s largest bank HSBC has clung on to a place in the world’s top 10 banks, falling to ninth place from fifth last year. HSBC was the biggest bank in the world in 2008.</p>
<p>Brian Caplen, editor of The Banker, said: “At one time the ambition of the largest banks was to have operations in all parts of the world and across all business sectors. Now they are focusing on a few areas in a bid to restore profitability. We may have seen the end of the global bank.”</p>
<p>The largest three banks in the world are China’s ICBC, China Construction Bank with $202bn of Tier 1 capital and America’s JPMorgan with $187bn of Tier 1 capital.</p>
