what is the largest bank in the world?
 

i asking for a name of a bank thats has most members and money in it, that cover world wide.

this is not a trick asking like to know what you think is the biggest bank that has the most members and most money holding.

hsbc

www.hsbc.co.uk

have a feeling that is not the world largest bank, its more like a local bank.

i would say HSBC aswell.

local bank?! you kidding?

"Headquartered in London, HSBC is one of the largest banking and financial services organisations in the world. HSBC's international network comprises over 9,800 offices in 77 countries and territories in Europe, the Asia-Pacific region, the Americas, the Middle East and Africa.

With listings on the London, Hong Kong, New York, Paris and Bermuda stock exchanges, shares in HSBC Holdings plc are held by nearly 200,000 shareholders in some 100 countries and territories. The shares are traded on the New York Stock Exchange in the form of American Depositary Receipts."

never herd of it :p ... washingotn mutual maybe. i have no idea.

Worlds largest back is Citicorp/Citibank..

2004 in terms of capital

#1 Citygroup
#2 Credit Agricole Groupe
#3 HSBC
#4 Bank of America

CitiBank sucks Freaking high fee for everything.

HSBC is better. Less fee

BOA has real high apr's for thier credit services.

The world bank lol

sorry steve i really have no ID at all about HSBC? never heard of them at all.

#1 Citygroup (yes)
#2 Credit Agricole Groupe (no)
#3 HSBC (no)
#4 Bank of America (yes)

no-never heard of them
yes-have heard about them all the time.

world bank yes but they are most part only for countrys to get loan from i think? never heard anyone buying stocks or having a bank account with them as is in a personal checking or saving account.

a family member was asking me; who is the biggest banker around the world? thats why i made this thread i don't know the asking to this one.

they have this ID its going to be a big time bank that will roll over soon and it cover a large area of the world a very big large bank when it goes it will crash the stock market

That bank in Harry Potter movie with tiny trolls

Gringotts :P

I can't comment on HSBC, but I agree 100% about Citi. They're worse than an ex trying to get extra child support to cover the Corvette payment :|

In terms of consolidated assets, the biggest at Dec 31 2004 is (in millions of dollars)

JP Morgan Chase and Co ->628,662
Bank of America ->617,962
Citigroup ->582,123

Source on this is the Federal Reserve System

But on the same logic, Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group Inc is the worlds largest bank with 1.6 trillion in assets.

ING or ABN

I really have no idea but I presume it would be an American bank as it has the most powerful economy in the world?

Regards :cool:
