Separator

Collaboration Betters The World (CBTW), a renowned global provider of tech and business solutions, has unveiled a strategic alliance with Metrobank, a prominent universal bank in the Philippines. This partnership aims to aid Metrobank in revolutionizing its wealth management technology. CBTW will play a pivotal role in augmenting Metrobank's wealth management offerings through the integration of Temenos Wealth.

By adopting Temenos Wealth, Metrobank secures access to the most comprehensive solution currently accessible in the market. Temenos' offering encompasses wealth analytics integrated with responsible AI, digital onboarding features, and self-service functionalities such as robo-advisory services and goal-based planning tools. A critical factor in opting for Temenos' cutting-edge technology platform was its composable API-driven architecture, facilitating scalability and seamless integration with pre-existing third-party applications. This approach aids in minimizing costs and risks while enhancing operational flexibility and responsiveness.

This step solidifies Metrobank's position as the top choice for High Net Worth and Ultra High Net Worth clientele. Renowned for its dynamic and comprehensive approach to wealth management, Metrobank has gained recognition as a leader in the field. Recently honored by Asiamoney as the Best Domestic Private Bank in the Philippines for the second consecutive year in 2023, Metrobank has also been acclaimed as the premier bank for Ultra-High-Net-Worth clients.

The key personnel involved in this collaboration include Ric Pedrosa, Head of Institutional Sales at Metrobank; Bernie Ramos from Metrobank's Information Technology Group; Christine Yang-Castillo representing Metrobank's General Services Group; Fernand Antonio Tansingco, Head of Financial Markets Sector Group at Metrobank; Pieter van Diermen, CEO of CBTW APAC; Eric Mellor, Temenos Wealth Specialist for Asia Pacific, Middle East, and Africa; and Jon May, Leader of CBTW's Banking Technology Solutions Service Line.
