"BDO" could stand for "Big Darn Operation," but instead, it's short for Banco de Oro Unibank, the latest iteration of a merger that took place in 2007 between two Filipino entities, Banco de Oro Universal Bank and Equitable PCI Bank. Since 1968, Banco de Oro has provided corporate, commercial, retail, and investment banking services throughout the country. Established in 1938, Equitable PCI brings to the coupling its commercial banking, small and middle market lending, trust, leasing, and remittances expertise. Combined, BDO operates a network of more than 680 branches and some 1,200 ATMs in Metro Manila, as well as the Luzon, Mindanao, and Visayas provinces.
