The World´s Biggest Bank

What´s the biggest bank in the world? Well, that is an extremely difficult one to call in this day and age, particularly as the banks no longer seem to know what their assets and liabilities are to any degree of accuracy!

So we are just going to play safe and run with the known results and news.

HSBC Holdings Plc is Europe’s biggest bank. They have reported a significantly 2009 Q3 pretax profit.

This was the list BEFORE the credit crisis- quite interesting to see Royal Bank of Scotland at the top (where are they now?!)
