“We are extremely pleased to see our UITF team achieve another recognition for fund management. This is a testament to the Bank’s commitment to providing reliable service to our clients and ensuring they are in good hands,” said Angelica Reyes, head of Metrobank’s Trust Banking Group.
Metrobank was recognized in multiple categories. The Metro High Dividend Yield Unit Paying Fund was honored under the Equity Funds category. The Metro$ US Investment Grade Corporate Bond Feeder Fund earned recognition in the Global Fixed Income Feeder Fund category. The Metro$ Short Term Bond Fund was awarded under the Intermediate-Term Bond Funds using pure FVPL valuation category.
The CFA Society Philippines’ 10th Annual Best Managed Funds of the Year Awards, known as Vision 2025, acknowledged the country’s top fund managers for delivering high risk-adjusted returns from 2020 to 2024. This year, the awards introduced new categories for global feeder funds, local money markets, and thematic funds.

The CFA Society Philippines evaluated 170 qualified funds from 16 investment houses and trust institutions to determine this year’s winners.
“We sincerely thank CFA Philippines for recognizing Metrobank’s dedication over the past year. We are honored to receive this award and deeply grateful for the continued trust in the Bank’s fund management expertise. We will strive to pursue excellence by continuously enhancing our portfolio management strategies,” said Cristina Gabaldon, head of Investment Management at Metrobank.
