Cambodian government officials said the presence of BOC has largely contributed to developing Cambodian economy and strengthening the banking system. They noted that BOC that is playing a vital role in promoting trade and investment ties between Cambodia and China.

China set a target last year to boost bilateral trade volume to US$5 billion by 2017. BOC intends to lend more to trade sector in order to help the two countries achieve the goal.
