The Bank of China (BOC) has its sights set on global conquest -- of the financial kind. One of the largest banks in the world's most populous country, BOC is a financial giant. It has more than 10,000 domestic branches as well as foreign offices in about 30 countries. Commercial banking (including corporate and retail banking and treasury operations) accounts for about 90% of its revenues. BOC International provides investment banking services in China, the UK, the US, and Singapore. BOC Group Insurance sells general and life insurance products in China. The group provides aircraft leasing through BOC Aviation. China's government owns about 70% of BOC, one of the nation's four state-owned commercial banks.
