THE Industrial and Commercial Bank of China (ICBC) agreed on Wednesday to buy a controlling interest in Standard Bank's global markets business in London for US$765 million.
The deal will make the bank, which is China's largest, the first large Chinese lender to have a substantial trading operation in London, and it could be a precursor to investment in Britain by other Chinese financial companies.
