The most notable change in the pattern of the rankings this year for the Asia-Pacific region (excluding China and Japan) is in the highest movers table. This year, a bank from the Philippines – BDO Unibank – tops the table with a Tier 1 capital increase of 85.94% to $3.41bn.
Last year it was Indonesia that made its mark on the highest movers table for the Asia-Pacific with three entries. This year there are no Indonesian banks in the highest movers chart, and it is not just south-east Asia that dominates, as there is a mix from across the region, with Taiwan, Vietnam, India, Malaysia, South Korea and Thailand all represented.
