More logging on to Internet banking

Internet banking has enormous growth potential in China, according to a report released by the nation's financial certification body yesterday.

About one-third of both individual and corporate banking clients in China's 10 major cities used online services this year, an increase of 4.2 and 1.7 percent from 2006, the China Financial Certification Authority (CFCA) report said.

These figures indicate that "prospects for online banking are very bright", according to the CFCA.
