HONG KONG, June 5 (Reuters) - Industrial Bank of China (ICBC) (1398.HK) (601398.SS), the world's largest bank by market value, said on Thursday that the Sichuan earthquake had only a limited impact on its loan portfolio.

The bank said Sichuan province accounts for 2.8 percent of its loan portfolio.
