What Ping An Bank does

Retail-focused Chinese joint-stock bank owned by Ping An Insurance Group, known for credit cards and wealth management.

Earns from consumer credit, especially credit cards and auto and personal loans, plus wealth fees from selling Ping An group products. Ping An Insurance owns about half and feeds it customers from the insurer and its agent force. It took its current name after the former Shenzhen Development Bank merged with the group's Ping An Bank in 2012.

In one line: China's Capital One, backed by an insurance parent.
