Editor May 8, 2025
(L–R) Metrobank Head of Client Solutions Division Paolo Narciso, Metrobank Head of Securities Brokering Department April De Leon, Metrobank Head of Investment Distribution Chorie Chan, Metrobank Head of Rates and Credit Division Kathryn Abes, Metrobank Head of Financial Markets Sector Toto Tansingco, Metrobank Head of Local Currency Trading Department Kevin Rosario, Metrobank Desk Head for Local Corporate Credits Bernice Nobleza, and Metrobank Head of Trading and OIC Head of Treasury Group John Lu.

The Philippine Dealing System (PDS) Annual Awards recognized anew Metropolitan Bank & Trust Co. (Metrobank) for its exceptional performance, innovation, and leadership in the Philippine debt capital market – reinforcing the bank’s continued dominance in the industry.  

This year, Metrobank secured top distinctions across six major categories, including the prestigious Cesar E.A. Virata Award for Best Securities House (Bank category), the highest honor conferred by the PDS Group to a bank for spurring the local fixed-income market.   

Metrobank brought home the Cesar EA Virata award for the tenth time now, the most out of any bank – consistently demonstrating its excellence in dealing, brokering, and coverage of different sectors and market segments for fixed-income securities.  

The Bank was also named the: Top Fixed Income Dealing Participant; Top Corporate Securities Market Maker; Top Dealing Participant for Corporate Securities; Top Fixed Income Cash Settlement Bank (3rd Place); and Top Fixed Income Brokering Participant (5th Place).  

“I would like to take this award as an opportunity to thank our clients who have chosen Metrobank to be their partner. This recognition further underscores our commitment to the securities market, that in good times and in bad, Metrobank will uphold the highest standards of excellence that we have been known for throughout the years,” said Fernand Antonio Tansingco, Metrobank Financial Markets Sector Head.   

Metrobank’s Financial Markets Sector has been proving year after year its expertise in securities trading and investment and wealth management as it continues to receive recognition from the government as well as local and international award-giving bodies. The bank itself has likewise earned awards through the years, establishing its strength, stability, and reliability. It was named the country’s strongest bank by the Asian Banker for the fourth consecutive year and earned the title the Most Recommended Retail Bank by the same publication. Most recently, it was crowned as the Best Bank for the Ultra High Net Worth for the third straight year by Euromoney. (PR)
