National Industrial Bank of China


National Industrial Bank of China (NIBC; simplified Chinese: 中国实业银行, traditional Chinese: 中國實業銀行) was a bank established in September 1915 in Tianjin. It moved its headquarters to Shanghai in 1932. The bank provided funding for the KMT government in Shanghai's various projects around the city, and also issued bank notes.[1] The bank merged with Bank of Communications in 1935, although its branch in Hong Kong remained in operations under the National Industrial Bank name until 1954.

Not to be confused with Banque Industrielle de Chine, Industrial and Commercial Bank of China, Industrial Bank (China), or NIBC Bank.
