Metropolitan Bank and Trust Company

Metropolitan Bank and Trust Company is a New York-based commercial bank serving businesses with ties across the Philippines, China, Taiwan, Japan, and the United States. Its strongest suit is international trade finance — Import, Export, Standby, and Transferable Letters of Credit, Documentary Collection, EX-IM Bank Guarantee programs, and cross-border wire transfers — making it a natural fit for importers, exporters, and businesses with active Asia-Pacific trade flows. For small-business borrowers, the bank also offers lines of credit, term loans, equipment finance, commercial real estate financing, and construction finance. Specific rates, minimums, and eligibility requirements aren't publicly detailed, so reaching out directly is the best next step.
