Update: Largest Banks in the Philippines (2009)
Banco de Oro (BDO) is now the largest bank in the Philippines, in terms of both assets and total deposits.
This is according to a report of comparative sizes of Philippine banks which I got from my bank.

The Metropolitan Bank and Trust Company (PSE: MBT), commonly known as Metrobank, is the largest bank in the Philippines in terms of assets and is also the largest Philippine bank in terms of overseas presence.

Metrobank (www.metrobank.com.ph) was established by a group of businessmen on September 5, 1962 at the Wellington Building in Binondo, Manila.
