Orix Metro Leasing and Finance Corp., one of the country’s top leasing and financial services companies, announced the appointment of Angelo Padua as its new president effective July 1, 2024.
Padua will replace Antonio Ocampo Jr. who will transition to a new role within the Metrobank Group as president of one of its subsidiaries and will remain a member of Orix Metro’s board of directors and its executive committee.
Padua joined Orix Metro more than 28 years ago serving in increasing levels of leadership, including as center head of Northern Luzon and the countryside branches group. He served as the executive vice president-marketing sector head and has played key roles in leading the operations group.
“With his depth of experience in leasing, dealer management and operational strategy; his passion for serving customers and his commitment to empowering micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs); and his track record of developing and inspiring his team, Mr. Padua is the right choice to continue and build on what Antonio R. Ocampo, Jr. and senior management have done in leading ORIX METRO towards a more sustainable growth,” said Anthony Paul Yap, chairman of Orix Metro.
