Executive Summary

Asia’s Regional and Large Local Banks Are on the Rise

Just five years ago, only about 1 in 5 large Asian corporates named a large local Asian bank as one of their corporate banking providers. In 2023, that share approached one quarter. The advance of regional banks has been equally noteworthy. In 2018, only 9% of large Asian corporates used one of Asia’s regional banks for corporate banking. In 2023 that share hit 13%.
