In 2024, the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China (ICBC) was the world's largest bank by total assets, reaching nearly 6.7 trillion U.S. dollars. The next three largest banks were also based in China: the Agricultural Bank of China, China Construction Bank, and Bank of China. The largest non-Chinese bank that year was JPMorgan Chase, with total assets exceeding four trillion U.S. dollars. Largest bank by market capitalization The value of total assets is a common measure of a bank's prosperity, and is defined as all assets owned by the bank. Another common indicator is the bank's market capitalization, which is used to determine the size of the bank. The market capitalization is the market price of one share multiplied by the number of shares outstanding. Ranked by market capitalization instead of total assets, JPMorgan Chase was the largest bank in the world in 2024, while ICBC ranked third. How do digital banks compare? Digital banks have surged in popularity over the past decade, attracting millions of customers with their convenient mobile interfaces, lower fees, and innovative financial products. Despite this impressive user growth, their financial footprint remains dwarfed by traditional banking institutions. A prime example is WeBank, which despite boasting approximately 400 million users - making it the world's largest digital bank by customer count - managed total assets of only about 74 billion U.S. dollars in 2023.

This dataset contains all independent assessments and validations of World Bank projects carried out by the Independent Evaluation Group (IEG). This data is updated quarterly in addition to the annual update for IEG's Results and Performance of the World Bank Group (RAP). Learn more at http://ieg.worldbankgroup.org/ratings. Note: The data shows the latest evaluation i.e. if a project had multiple evaluations such as a Project Performance Assessment Report (PPAR), only the latest rating is included in the dataset.

How to use the dataset

This dataset contains the rank and total asset information of the top 100 global banks as of December 31, 2017. It is a useful resource for researchers who wish to study how key financial institutions' asset information relate to each other across countries.

Using this dataset is relatively straightforward – it consists of three columns - rank (the order in which each bank appears in the list), country (the country in which the bank is located) and total assets US billions (the total value expressed in US dollars). Additionally, there is a fourth column containing the balance sheet information for each bank as well.

In order to make full use of this dataset, one should analyse it by creating comparison grids based on different factors such as region, size or ownership structures. This can provide an interesting insight into how financial markets are structured within different economies and allow researchers to better understand some banking sector dynamics that are particularly relevant for certain countries or regions. Additionally, one can compare any two banks side-by-side using their respective balance sheets or distribution plot graphs based on size or concentration metrics by leverage or other financial ratios as well.

Overall, this dataset provides useful resources that can be put into practice through data visualization making an interesting reference point for trends analysis and forecasting purposes focusing on certain banking activities worldwide

Research Ideas

• Analyzing the differences in total assets across countries. By comparing and contrasting data, patterns could be found that give insight into the factors driving differences in banks’ assets between different markets.

• Using predictive models to identify which banks are more likely to perform better based on their balance sheet data, such as by predicting future profits or cashflows of said banks.

• Leveraging the information on holdings and investments of “top-ranked” banks as a guide for personal investments decisions or informing investment strategies of large financial institutions or hedge funds

The Doing Business project provides objective measures of business regulations and their enforcement across 190 economies. Economies are ranked on their ease of doing business, from 1–190. The rankings are determined by sorting the aggregate scores (formerly called distance to frontier) on 10 topics, each consisting of several indicators, giving equal weight to each topic. More details: http://www.doingbusiness.org.

NOTE: Doing Business has been discontinued as of 9/16/2021. Click here for more information.

As of December 31, 2024, the largest bank in the world in terms of market capitalization was the U.S.-based J*************. The American banking giant's market cap exceeded *** billion U.S. dollars, which was significantly higher than ***************'s, which ranked second with a market cap of approximately ****** billion U.S. dollars. ************** was also the largest bank in the United States in terms of total assets but ranked only fifth globally, behind four Chinese banks. What is market capitalization? Market capitalization, also known as stock market value, is the total value of issued shares of a publicly traded company. It is equal to the share price multiplied by the number of shares outstanding. It applies only to publicly traded companies or companies that have made their stock market debut, also known as an initial public offering, or IPO. Due to the nature of the capitalist system and the practice of buying and selling stocks in public markets, market capitalization can be used as a proxy for the wider public’s opinion of a company’s net worth, making it therefore a determining factor in calculating other theoretical values of companies and their stocks, for example, stock valuation. How were banks affected by the coronavirus outbreak? The outbreak of the coronavirus left no industries unaffected and had a significant impact on the global financial markets. This can be seen in the banking industry, as the market capitalization of the largest banks worldwide dropped markedly between December 2019 and March 2020. For the largest bank, JPMorgan Chase, it was not until February 2021 that the market capitalization saw pre-pandemic figures again.
