SYDNEY (Reuters) - The Reserve Bank of New Zealand (RBNZ) said on Monday it has registered Industrial and Commercial Bank of China (OTC:BACHY) Ltd (ICBC) (SS:601398) (HK:1398), the world's biggest commercial lender by assets, to provide banking services in New Zealand.

ICBC will operate in New Zealand as a branch, though there are limits on the nature and amount of business that can be conducted, the central bank said in a statement.

A New Zealand unit of ICBC was registered in 2013 to provide banking services in New Zealand.
