“We are delighted to welcome Anthony Ocampo at First Metro. With Anthony’s extensive experience in investment and corporate banking and deep understanding of relationship management, we are confident that he can steer the company to achieve sustained growth and develop robust relationships with our clients,” FMIC Chairman Mary Mylene A.

He also led Metropolitan Bank & Trust Corp.’s (Metrobank) Corporate Banking group.
