Banks are financial institutions that operate currency and credit businesses. As products of developed commodity-money economies, they engage in issuing fiduciary money, managing currency circulation, adjusting capital supply-demand relationships, and handling monetary deposits, loans, and settlements.
Since the reform and opening-up, China's commodity economy has become increasingly dynamic, driving rapid expansion in the banking sector. However, under current circumstances marked by accelerated interest rate liberalization, intensifying internal and external competition, and declining profit growth rates, financial institutions must implement strategic adjustments in business structures, resource allocation, and regional layouts. Consequently, industry research focusing on development environments and market demands has become increasingly crucial.
To support related research, CnOpenData presents comprehensive data covering all bank branches in China. This dataset encompasses branch information from over 3,500 domestic banks, including fields such as Bank Name (银行名称), Branch Name (分支机构), Responsible Person (负责人), Establishment Date (成立日期), Operational Status (状态), Location (所在省市县), and Branch Level (分支机构级别).
