The Sichuan government has estimated post-quake rebuilding will cost more than 1.6 trillion yuan.

The Beijing-based bank, one of the country's top four lenders, said it would also offer financing support for small and medium-sized companies in Sichuan.

The 8.0-magnitude quake, centered in Sichuan, left more than 80,000 people dead or missing and millions homeless.
