ANZ inaugurates Chengdu unit

Lender aggressive in China expansion as it seeks for $5bln purchase of KEB's 57% stake.

ANZ formally opened its Chinese operations in the Sichuan province capital Chengdu, underling its commitment to the market.

The move comes ahead of the local incorporation of its first branch this Friday, October 1.

ANZ has three foreign bank branches in Shanghai, Beijing and Guangzhou, plus sub-branches in Shanghai and Beijing and a rural bank in Liangping county, Chongqing.

While the market is getting excited about the potential $5 billion purchase of a 57 per cent stake in Korea Exchange Bank, the timing of any deal is likely to be a month or two away.

What is Lorem Ipsum?
What is Lorem Ipsum? Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
