This will provide us better margins and allow us to maintain our industry-leading ROE moving forward,” said Bautista.UnionBank absorbed Citi’s 1,540 employees. Bautista has said earlier that with the Citi consumer portfolio, they will become one of the three biggest credit cards issuers in the Philippines.
