Philippine domestic consumption remained robust, partly underpinned by the sustained growth of overseas Filipino (OF) remittances which increased by 7% during the year. The country’s fiscal position remained healthy, driving interest rates to lower levels and reducing over-all perceived risk for the country. This in turn improved our country’s credit rating to just below investment grade. Liquidity and credit both remained supportive of growth, benefitting many domestic businesses across various sectors, particularly real estate. It was against this backdrop that your Our leasing business likewise reported and achieve our goal to reach P10 Company posted another record- good results as we expanded billion in net income and a 15% return breaking year in 2011.
