Metro Bank Secures $250 Million Funding Boost Following Landmark Merger with F.N.B. Corporation

Metro Bank, operating under the F.N.B. Corporation umbrella following its successful merger on February 13, 2016, is thrilled to announce a remarkable funding milestone. The company has successfully raised $250,000,000 to further accelerate its strategic growth and innovation initiatives. With roots dating back to Metro Bank’s inception in 1985 and a well-established footprint in the Mid-Atlantic region, this infusion of capital is poised to enhance the banking experience for consumers across its legacy markets. As part of F.N.B. Corporation—a diversified financial services powerhouse serving six states with more than 300 full-service banking locations—the commitment to excellence and community-focused service remains unwavering. The funds will be strategically deployed to expand digital banking capabilities, bolster branch modernization projects, and enhance overall customer service across the former Metro Bank network and the broader FNB system. Given FNB’s significant market presence, boasting a top retail deposit share in key metropolitan areas such as Pittsburgh, Cleveland, and Baltimore, and nearly 70 branches in central and eastern Pennsylvania, this investment underscores a forward-thinking vision. The expansion and modernization efforts are designed to provide seamless, secure, and technologically advanced banking solutions to meet the changing needs of a diverse clientele across 18 counties in Pennsylvania, Ohio, Maryland, and West Virginia. The funding represents not only financial strength but also a commitment to community engagement and long-term economic empowerment.
