Since no overseas company has ever listed on China's A-share market, the bank must wait for the Mainland's regulatory policies to be written, Li said.
Li said the bank's capital adequacy ratio was 13 per cent at the closing of June, an adequate amount to safeguard it from pressure to raise capital.
The bank realized 1.67 billion HK dollars (US$215.5 million) of pretax profit in the first half of this year, 44 per cent of which was contributed by its business on the Chinese mainland.
BEA now has 71 branches on the Chinese mainland.
