EastWest Bank

[15] Its headquarter is located at The Beaufort, a condominium building by Filinvest in Bonifacio Global City.

Backed-up by the Filinvest Group of Companies, EastWest Bank opened to the public along Senator Gil Puyat Avenue, Makati on August 1, 1994.

[19][20] The merger resulted in EastWest Bank becoming the sixth largest lender for housing, auto and credit cards in the country.

Based in Butuan, Green Bank has been serving the needs of mostly farmers, government and private employees, barangay officials, pensioners and small-scale businessmen.

Through Green Bank's strong branch network in the Visayas and Mindanao, EastWest is able to gain entry into the microfinance business.

Green Bank was also recognized as among the first to use the services of an independent credit ratings agency to boost its loan quality.

[32] EastWest Bank is a subsidiary of the Filinvest Development Corporation, a publicly listed company founded by Andrew Gotianun Sr. in 1955.

It operates its real estate business primarily through its majority-owned subsidiaries, Filinvest Alabang Inc. and Filinvest Land Inc. EastWest Bank joined BancNet in 1994 as an Associate member, with full use of the network's facilities and services but without voting rights.

The bank commenced actual operations on April 5, 1975, originally to serve the municipality of Nasipit, Agusan del Norte.

The bank took advantage of a government rediscounting program called Masagana 99, with the intention of helping poor farmers gain access to credit.

In the case of Green Bank, it had arrears with the Bangko Sentral amounting to nearly fifteen million pesos, requiring it to recapitalize to cope with capital deficiency.

Situated in Butuan, Green Bank has been dedicated to serving the diverse needs of primarily farmers, government and private employees, barangay officials, pensioners, and small-scale businessmen.
