A graphical representation of the top 50 banks worldwide, ranked by consolidated assets from a 2023 report by S&P Global Market Intelligence and created by Visual Capitalist, reveals significant shifts in the banking landscape. The standout observation is the remarkable ascent of major Chinese banks, which now collectively command over a third of global assets. Notably, the top four Chinese banks experienced a 4.1% growth in assets in 2022, according to S&P's findings and now managing assets totalling $19.8 trillion. This surge contrasts with a previous era where Japanese banks held similar prominence but have since witnessed a decline in assets and corresponding rankings. However, the top 10 list still showcases notable diversity, comprising four Chinese banks, two American institutions, two French entities, along with one Japanese and one British bank.
