The community-centric and growth-oriented institutions

Financial institutions have played a crucial role in driving growth across key Philippine sectors.

During the 13th Asia Corporate Excellence & Sustainability (ACES) Awards 2026, leading Philippine financial institutions were recognized on the regional stage for driving financial inclusion and digital and community impact.

Proven Excellence

Asialink Finance Corporation is a non-bank financial institution in the Philippines that focuses on empowering Filipino business owners. They provide support to micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs), as well as individual borrowers with reliable and accessible financing solutions.

During the ACES Awards 2026, they were recognized as one of Asia's Most Influential Companies.

With their strong belief in financial inclusion, they have simplified the requirements and loan approval processes for credit accessibility. But more than credit assistance, they also support these businesses for sustainable growth, encouraging financial literacy and responsible business practices.

China Banking Corporation is backed by century-long knowledge and expertise. Because of these, they were awarded Industry Champions of the Year and Inspiring Workplaces in Asia during the ceremony.

They provide an integrated suite of financial solutions, from retail and corporate banking, to consumer and business lending, treasury, wealth management, and digital banking. 

With the growing demands in the industry, they are also committed to providing secure and accessible financial services.

The Development Bank of the Philippines (DBP) has been in the industry for over 80 years. Their commitment to promoting socio-economic equity and inclusive growth has earned them the Top Community Centric Companies in Asia Award and the Nation Builder Award at the ACES Awards 2026.

They recognize that education is of vital importance to nation-building. With the DBP Integrated Scholastic Program for Inclusive and Responsive Education (INSPIRE), they have continuously provided financial assistance to students who wish to continue with their education.

Additionally, through their DBP Assistance for Economic and Social Development (ASENSO) for LGU Financing Program, they have supported local government units in funding vital infrastructure, healthcare, public services, and local enterprises.

Beyond Banking

These companies have truly earned the titles they were honored with. Their efforts translated into tangible impact and growth in the areas they have served.

By expanding financial inclusion, investing in education, and funding local infrastructure, these industry leaders prove that financial excellence goes far beyond profitability. 

It is about empowering communities and building a sustainable future for the nation.
