The Top 200 Emerging market banks

The ranking was compiled in conjunction with IBCA Limited. All information was supplied by IBCA from banks’ consolidated annual reports for 1995 and 1996. Only institutions whose primary business is taking deposits are eligible. Consolidated figures include data from non-banking activities. Banks owned by other financial institutions are not listed separately, but consolidated in the parent’s figures. Banking groups are limited, however, to those where the parent holds management control over subsidiaries.
