Metropolitan Bank & Trust Co. (Metrobank) scored a rare trifecta of awards before 2024 ends.
First, Metrobank brought home the Strongest Bank in the Philippines title for the fourth straight year at the recently held The Asian Banker Global 2024 Finance Awards.
The Strongest Banks ranking of The Asian Banker is based on a detailed and transparent scorecard that ranks banks and financial holding companies on six criteria of balance sheet performance; which are the ability to scale, balance sheet growth, risk profile, profitability, asset quality and liquidity, covered by 14 specific factors. The evaluation is conducted between March and August each year when banks’ annual financial results become available.
Metrobank as the Most Recommended Retail Bank
Second, the Asian Banker also named Metrobank as the Most Recommended Retail Bank in the Philippines, based on the results of the publication’s Annual BankQuality Consumer Survey, which gathered feedback from over 12,000 customers across Asia in January 2024.
Metrobank as Alpha Southeast Asia and The Asse
Third, the Bank’s Financial Markets Sector garnered an award from the Bureau of the Treasury, Fund Managers’ Association of the Philippines, and regional financial publications, namely the Alpha Southeast Asia and The Asse for its expertise in securities trading and investment and wealth management.
Our value of “malasakit,” which means deep care for one’s responsibilities and even going beyond what is expected, coupled with commitment and hard work of every Metrobanker, make achievements such as this possible, adds Metrobank Financial Markets Sector Head Antonio Fernand Tansingco who received the award on behalf of the Bank.
