Bank of China

Based in Beijing, Bank of China is widely regarded as one of China's flagship banking operators. Its scale — about 307k people, around $167B in turnover — translates into genuine strategic weight across Asia Pacific.

“Bank of China is, in its category, exactly the kind of compounding regional champion the next decade of capital allocation will reward.”

Few catalysts on the horizon look bearish; the central scenario is a continued, controlled compounding story.
