securing a back-to-back win of a highly-coveted recognition.
Geared towards creating a more significant presence in the
banking industry, RBank has maintained a sound financial performance since the
rollout of Roadmap 2020 in 2015 when President Elfren Antonio S. Sarte took
over the bank's leadership.
RBank continues to make waves in the industry as the Bank's
profitability continues to be on the uptrend.
In 2019, RBank's revenues grew by 28% from its 2018
performance, registering a total of Php 8.1 billion, driven by a 17% expansion
in its gross loan portfolio. RBank's total net income in 2019 rose to Php
719.4M, marking a 127% increase.
The 6th Global Business Outlook Awards aims to recognize the

private and public sectors, highlighting the innovation, creativity, and
exceptional performance that they have shown.
Expanding products and increasing
visibility

interest-bearing deposit account that comes with free life insurance. Its
coverage extends up to four times the average daily balance (ADB). It is
designed to provide Filipinos with better choices and a more comfortable and
more affordable path towards a financially secure future.
Additionally, RBank also launched a co-branded product with
Robinsons Retail Holdings Inc. (RRHI), the Robinsons Cashback Card. The

rewarding as they earn up to 3% cashback when they shop in RRHI affiliated
stores, and up to 1% cashback on non-affiliated merchants.
