Over the past century, Bank of China played an important role in China"s financial history. It was established in 1912 pursuant to the approval of Mr. Sun Yatsen. In the following 37 years until the founding of the People"s Republic of China in 1949, the Bank served as the central bank, international exchange bank and specialized foreign trade bank successively. As the pillar of the country"s financial industry, Bank of China was committed to serving the public and developing the domestic financial sector. During these volatile years, the Bank strived to expand its presence in the market by prudent operation and aggressive reform, leading the market in many areas of its operations for a long period. Having branched out into overseas market, the Bank opened a brilliant chapter in China"s modern and contemporary banking history.
In 1949, Bank of China became the state-designated specialized foreign exchange bank and substantially contributed to development of foreign trade and the national economy. In 1994 and following the entrenchment of the reform of the financial sector, Bank of China was converted into a wholly state-owned commercial bank. Together with the other three wholly state-owned commercial banks, it constituted pillars of the country"s financial industry.
In 2003, it was named by the State Council as one of the pilot banks for joint-stock reform of wholly state-owned commercial banks. In order to develop itself into an internationally competitive modern joint-stock commercial bank with abundant capital, strict internal control, secure operations, and sound service and performance, Bank of China further improved corporate governance mechanism, strengthened risk management and internal control, integrated management processes and business processes, promoted human resource management reform, accelerated product and service innovation, and steadily pushed ahead joint-stock reform. On August 26, 2004, Bank of China Limited was formally incorporated in Beijing as a state-controlled joint stock commercial bank, turning a new chapter in its history and signaling a huge step forward in becoming a modern joint stock commercial bank with good corporate governance practices.
Bank of China is the most internationalized commercial bank in China. BOC London Branch, the first overseas branch of the Chinese banks, was established in 1929. From then on, the Bank successively opened branches in global financial centers, and has built up its network in 27 countries and regions. Currently, it had over 10000 domestic operations and over 600 overseas operations. In 1994 and 1995, Bank of China became the note issuing bank in Hong Kong and Macao respectively. It was the first among Chinese banks to recruit international experts and to introduce modern business management concepts into its operations with a view to become a premiere international bank.
