Note: Deal size amounts do not reflect any exercise of the underwriter overallotment (greenshoe). All deal sizes are nominal amounts without adjustment for inflation. Non-US listings convert to USD using the FX rate at the time of the offering. For Agricultural Bank of China, Industrial & Commercial Bank of China (ICBC), and Bank of China, we count the H-share (Hong Kong) and A-share (Shanghai) offerings separately; combining them would result in AgBank raising $19.2 billion, ICBC raising $19.1 billion, and Bank of China raising $10.7 billion.
