Philippines - U.S. Banks and Local Correspondent Banks (2024)

This information is derived from the State Department's Office of Investment Affairs’ 2018 Investment Climate Statement. Any questions on the ICS can be directed to EB-ICS-DL@state.gov.

The commercial banking system includes three U.S. foreign-branch banks: Citibank, which operates six full-service Citibank branches in key locations in Metro Manila and Metro Cebu; Bank of America; and JP Morgan Chase. Two U.S. banks have representative offices in the country: Wells Fargo Bank and Bank of New York Mellon.

Reflecting a long history of economic and political ties, all commercial banks in the Philippines have correspondent U.S. banking relationships. The best way for a firm to determine whether its U.S. bank has a correspondent bank in the Philippines is by checking with the U.S. bank.
