BofA sells last CCB stake

Bank of America sold a US$1.47 billion stake in China Construction Bank yesterday, the latest foreign lender to shed its interest in a Chinese lender after initial optimism about the potentially lucrative market eased.

The US bank sold 2 billion shares, or 1 percent, of CCB, one of China’s four major state-owned commercial lenders, for HK$5.70 (74 US cents) each. The shares were the last of its stake in the Beijing-based lender.

Over the past decade, BofA and other Western banks bought stakes in China’s major state-owned commercial lenders ahead of their initial public offerings.
