ORIX METRO Leasing and Finance Corporation is a joint venture between Metropolitan Bank and Trust Company (Metrobank) and ORIX Corporation, a pioneer in the leasing industry in Japan.
ORIX METRO was incorporated in June 1977 as Consolidated ORIX Leasing and Finance Corporation and was granted the authority to operate as a finance company in July 1977. Its first-ever branch was opened in Cebu in September 1980. A milestone event came in 2000 when Metrobank became the joint venture partner of ORIX Corporation and renamed the Company to ORIX METRO Leasing and Finance Corporation to reflect the change in ownership. The merger proved to be beneficial for ORIX METRO as it was able to leverage on the international reputation of ORIX Corporation and the extensive market reach of Metrobank through its numerous branch offices nationwide.
Initially starting with a few branches, ORIX METRO has grown to a total of 102 branches all over the country as of 30 September 2021. The Company’s rapid expansion in the countryside gave the advantage of capturing the high-yielding mortgage loans business to small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in the provinces, thus leading to the Company’s consequent shift of the majority of its revenue to financing income. In August 2007, ORIX METRO was granted authority by the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) to engage in quasi-banking functions.
Now, ORIX METRO has been in the industry for over 40 years and has become one of the most trusted partners of multinational and big local companies as well as SMEs in building their businesses. It is one of the most leading leasing and finance companies with the widest market reach all over the Philippines.
