NCB had 38% of the total or $219 billion in assets, making the Michael Lee Chin led institution the biggest commercial bank by asset in Jamaica.
The Bank of Nova Scotia with $190 billion was the second largest bank measured by assets at the end of June.
RBTT, with 10% of all commercial bank assets, maintained its hold as the third largest bank in Jamaica while First Caribbean International Bank was the fourth largest.
