ICICI Bank Ltd, India’s biggest private sector lender by assets, on Saturday opened its first branch in China as trade between Asia’s two key economies flourishes.

Initially, the branch inaugurated by Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi during a three-day visit to boost economic ties, will have 17 staff.
