Metrobank earns international CSR distinction

A leading business publication in Asia, the Asian Banking and Finance Magazine, has given Metropolitan Bank & Trust Company (Metrobank) a distinction for the Best Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) Program.

It has been the tradition of Metrobank, the leading and biggest bank in the Philippines, to celebrate Filipino excellence and present wellsprings of hope in the future for the country. The bank's guiding philosophy is to give back and share the fruits of their success with society who made possible the success in the first place.

For over 28 years, Metrobank has conducted and sponsored various programs, most notably of which are the Search for Outstanding Teachers, the Metrobank Art and Design Excellence, The Outstanding Philippine Soldiers, the Country's Outstanding Policemen in Service, the Metrobank Math Challenge, and the College Scholarship Program.

This is the third international CSR award garnered by Metrobank. It only shows that Metrobank leads the way in good corporate citizenship and shows the many possibilities how business can contribute to nation building.
