ICBC's response came after the Hong Kong press reported that Bank of China could have invested $7.95 billion in securities linked to US subprime mortgages.

According to ICBC's statement, the value of its overseas assets increased 15 percent in 2008. The lender's revenues from international settlement reached $750 billion for the first time last year. ICBC currently operates 126 branches in 15 countries and regions.
