Industrial and Commercial Bank of China President Liu Jun: Consistency may be the fastest, balance may be the best.

Industrial and Commercial Bank of China (ICBC) held a mid-term performance release conference for the year 2025 today. President Liu Jun stated that ICBC will definitely move in the same direction as the market and surpass the market average, achieving a reasonable return for stakeholders. As a mega-scale bank, ICBC always resonates with the market and accurately reflects the growth of China's national economy. If ICBC's performance shows an extraordinary trajectory, it may indicate a certain mismatch in terms of our comprehensive service to the real economy and the common path with the Chinese economy. Liu Jun pointed out that ICBC plays the role of a main force, a stabilizer, and a stabilizer. If the stabilizer's speed is extraordinary, its effectiveness may not be particularly good. Therefore, we always believe that a steady pace may be the fastest, balance may be the best, and we have always adhered to this philosophy to promote the transformation and further high-quality development of ICBC.
