PBB - 25th Anniversary
February 10, 2022
When Philippine Business Bank started its operations on February 12, 1997, Amb. Alfredo M. Yao envisioned a community bank presence that was committed to helping local entrepreneurs and small businesses grow in the CAMANAVA region. It was a market he felt was clearly underserved by other financial institutions. It was this vision and commitment that helped to establish PBB as a financial institution dedicated to the small business community. A bank built on trusted relationships that customers count on – from start-up entities to corporate accounts – to provide the financial support they need and help their businesses grow.
PBB continues to grow, topping more than Php120 billion in assets in 2020 and reaching more than 163 branch networks to support its mission and to help PBB achieve its thrust to be the bank of choice of the SMEs. Keeping their focus on meeting the needs of small businesses, PBB continues to expand its portfolio of financial services to include personal, commercial, and corporate banking.
“We continue to grow the Bank by raising new capital for the rebound of the economy brought about by the pandemic,” remarked Rolando R. Avante, Vice Chairman and PCEO of PBB. “We plan to expand in other regions stretching our reach in these different markets and helping resolve local issues of the SMEs - which are a nation’s assets,” Mr. Avante added.
As an established financial institution, the bank holds great significance to the trust and confidence of their clients, helping build strong business communities where people can achieve their visions and aspirations. Thus, amid the unprecedented conditions, the company has been dedicated to being agile and adaptive to continuously serve the changing needs of its customers.
