ICBC ( Asia ) sees no undue risk in lending to Hong Kong's large property developers and will also continue to write home mortgages to support the sector's recovery.

The Hong Kong subsidiary of mainland China 's largest bank counts "leading" developers, including beleaguered New World Development ( NWD ), as its clients.

The bank welcomes discussions with developers to reduce debt or borrowing costs.

"We have our unique advantages based in Hong Kong , an international financial centre," Wang said.

"We provide loans to customers in a wide variety of currencies. Hong Kong has no foreign exchange controls. It is a completely free-trade port," he said.
