[OC]Top 10 Global Banks by Total Assets: Insights from the Global Balance Sheet

There’s a lot of inconsistencies in this, unfortunately.

BoJ is a central bank. If you put them on there, why not the People’s Bank of China and the European Central Bank? Both have a higher asset total than Citigroup. Of course, the reason is that the website only lists listed companies. But then why
is JP Morgan missing? Why is China Construction Bank?

I think Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac could be considered banks, too? That’s a terminology/language issue. In my language they would be considered banks but it appears that regulation of entities like these is done seperately in the US, currently under FHFA, not under the auspices of the (many) banking regulatory agiencies. MUFG is a bank holding company, so its exclusion arguably makes sense.
