[Title] => Metrobank bullish over consumer market
[Summary] =>
The Metropolitan Bank and Trust Co. (Metrobank) wants a bigger slice of the consumer market in the face of a bloated corporate sector.
Metrobank senior vice president Bernardito Lapuz said they will be giving more and more emphasis on the consumer market as the corporate sector keeps its expansion efforts on hold.
In fact, Lapuz ventured to say that should Metrobank consider taking an aggressive stance regarding acquisition, "it would be a bank that offers value-added to Metrobank and that is a bank with a strong consumer base."

[Summary] => Not that Filipino bank consumers have become like the painfully fickle Japanese who want their imported mangoes from Cebu or tulips from Amsterdam in uniform sizes, but Filipino consumers are slowly and quietly transforming themselves. For instance, they now demand information technology(IT)-enabled services from their banks.
Even as the surviving IT companies ponder their direction in this still uncertain global economic climate, the Metropolitan Bank and Trust Co. (Metrobank) launched last week its Internet banking service called "metrobankdirect."
