The restoration of the seven-story Neo-classic Beaux Arts building is the centerpiece of China Bank’s centennial celebration in 2020, and more importantly, our contribution to the revival of Binondo, the world’s oldest Chinatown.

The rapid uptake of social media in Asia Pacific, thanks to consumer segments such as millennials and Generation Z, has been a major factor in the rise of social commerce. The Asia Pacific region offers businesses great growth opportunities and profitability, due to its large working-age population, a critical mass of highly-educated people, an expanding middle class and modernisation efforts, all of which are boosting consumer expenditure and increasing demand for online retailing and e-commerce. Demographic dividend and fast-paced digital connectivity are key differentiators allowing the region to surpass other countries by paving the way for more innovative accessible services, customised products and experiences as well as creating unique digital marketplaces in the region.

  • A Financial and Operational Analysis of Banco De Oro
    Presented at the DLSU Research Congress 2015 De La Salle University, Manila, Philippines March 2-4, 2015 A Financial and Operational Analysis of Banco De Oro Lore-Anne Cadsawan1, Patrick Caoile2,*, John Disuanco3, Renz Garcia4, Janel Tumpalan5, Sean Wu6 and Mycah Yao7 De La Salle University 2401 Taft Avenue, Manila *Corresponding Author: [email protected] Abstract: Banco De Oro Unibank, Inc. (BDO) is one of the universal banks in the Philippines that was a product of a merger which made it unprecedented in size and scale in the Philippine banking industry. It offers a variety of services, ranging from the traditional lending and deposit-taking to foreign exchange, brokering, and corporate cash management. It is currently majority owned by the SM Group of Companies, which is headed by business tycoon, Mr. Henry Sy, who is considered the richest man in the Philippines. As of June 30, 2014, in terms of assets and loans, it is ranked number one in the universal and commercial bank group. With this, BDO should be able to compete to uplift its reputation with the increase in competition and constant penetration of international banks. The financials and operations of the bank must be examined to determine if it still has a competitive advantage over the increasing number of international banks in the Philippines. To examine BDO's performance in the financial side, a thorough financial ratio analysis is done. To study where the bank is in terms of its operations side, the SWOT Analysis and Porter’s Five Forces Model will be used. The financial ratios show that in terms of resources, gross customer loans, deposit liabilities, capital funds and net income, BDO is doing well and improving as all the figures are increasing.

  • Diversification Strategies of Large Business Groups in the Philippines
    Philippine Management Review 2013, Vol. 20, 65‐82. Diversification Strategies of Large Business Groups in the Philippines Ben Paul B. Gutierrez and Rafael A. Rodriguez* University of the Philippines, College of Business Administration, Diliman, Quezon City 1101, Philippines This paper describes the diversification strategies of 11 major Philippine business groups. First, it reviews the benefits and drawbacks of related and unrelated diversification from the literature. Then, it describes the forms of diversification being pursued by some of the large Philippine business groups. The paper ends with possible explanations for the patterns of diversification observed in these Philippine business groups and identifies directions for future research. Keywords: related diversification, unrelated diversification, Philippine business groups 1 Introduction This paper will describe the recent diversification strategies of 11 business groups in the Philippines. There are various definitions of business groups but in this paper, these are clusters of legally distinct firms with a managerial relationship, usually by virtue of common ownership. The focus on business groups rather than on individual firms has to do with the way that business firms in the Philippines are organized and managed. Businesses that are controlled and managed by essentially the same set of principal owners are often organized as separate corporations, not as separate divisions within the same firm, as is often the case in American corporations like General Electric, Procter and Gamble, or General Motors (Echanis, 2009). Moreover, studies on emerging markets have pointed out that business groups often occupy dominant positions in the business landscape in markets like India, Korea, Indonesia, Thailand, and the Philippines (Khanna & Palepu, 1997; Khanna & Yafeh, 2007).

  • The Business Case for Disaster Risk Reduction
    The business case for disaster risk reduction From Shared Risk to Shared Value Manila, Philippines, 16-17 June 2014 FINAL REPORT "Economic losses from disasters are out of control and can only be reduced in partnership with the private sector which is responsible for 70% to 85% of all investment worldwide in new buildings, industry and small to medium sized enterprises. The principles of disaster risk reduction must be taught at business schools and become part of the investor's mind-set." • UN Secretary -General Ban Ki -moon “We need to bridge the gap in understanding and convince business owners of the need to move beyond basic continuity planning, and to consider the opportunity to create value in markets with products that address disaster risk and the important role of public-private sector partnership in disaster recovery.” • President of SM Prime Mr Hans Sy 1 Making the case: The President of SM Prime, Mr Han Sy, tells the Philippines’ private sector that disaster risk management is both good business and good for business. Rationale: the private sector and disaster risk reduction In future, trillions of dollars of new business investment will pour into hazard-exposed regions, determining whether disaster risk continues to accumulate and underlying risk drivers remain unaddressed. The Philippines is one of the most exposed and vulnerable countries in the world in terms of disaster risk. The November 2013 Typhoon Haiyan (known as Yolanda locally) is the most recent – and tragic – illustration of this fact. A post-disaster needs assessment from the 2009 Typhoon Ketsana (known as Ondoy locally) revealed that 90% of losses were sustained by the private sector.
