                    [Summary] => A group of US-based investors has reportedly backed out of its intention to buy into Bankwise Inc. but the bank officials are still aggressively looking for foreign investors to infuse fresh capital into the bank. 


Industry sources told reporters over the weekend that the group has gone as far as making inquiries with the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) but the transaction did not push through for unknown reasons.
