The Bureau of the Treasury (BTr), in partnership with the Land Bank of the Philippines (LANDBANK), launched the first-ever Retail Treasury Bond (RTB) Online Facility to make RTBs available for online purchase. The five-year RTB tranche 22 offered by BTr is now made available to a wider public through an online ordering facility that makes investing easier and more accessible to more Filipinos, even to Overseas Filipinos (OFs). The RTB Online Facility automates the process through online accomplishment of an order form that is linked to LANDBANK Link.Biz Portal – an internet-based payment channel designed to accept payment of fees, dues, and charges from clients of enrolled merchants from government or private institutions. This initiative by the BTr aims to encourage participation from individual investors and expand reach to OFs. The RTB Online Facility is available for those who have peso deposit accounts (with online access) with LANDBANK and the Development Bank of the Philippines, the Joint Lead Issue Managers of RTB 22. Interested investors may place a minimum of P5,000 and in integral multiples thereafter with an interest rate of 6.25% gross per annum. RTBs offer period is until March 8, 2019 only and mature in 2024.

READ MOREThe Asia Pacific Quality Organization (APQO) has named LANDBANK as one of the winners in the prestigious Global Performance Excellence Awards (GPEA). The Bank received the Quest for Excellence Award, the third highest award under the Non-Profit or Government Entity category. It joins 29 other organizations from ten Asian and Pacific Rim Countries who were recognized as “exemplary companies of world class quality performance”. LANDBANK was nominated by the Development Academy of the Philippines to participate in GPEA, following its conferment of the Level-2 Recognition for Proficiency in Quality Management from the Philippine Quality Award. The Bank was recognized for having demonstrated effective and systematic approaches to the overall requirements of the globally-accepted business excellence framework. “We are honoured and grateful for this prestigious recognition, which affirms LANDBANK’s commitment to quality management and business excellence. This award inspires us all the more to intensify our efforts to continue building a culture of excellence that translates to world class performance, and serve as role model for other organizations across countries,” said LANDBANK OIC/Executive Vice President Cecilia C. Borromeo. Now on its 16th year, the GPEA is an international recognition of national quality award recipients based on the Baldrige Criteria Framework of the Malcolm Baldrige Quality Award (American Quality Award). Assessments are done by trained Baldrige examiners and consultants of Fortune 500 corporations. LANDBANK is the only Philippine bank and the only government entity that made it to this year’s roster of winners. The awards will be presented at the 22nd APQO International Conference on Quality in Rotorua, New Zealand on November 20-23, 2016. APQO is a non-profit organization that was founded and organized in 1985 by National Quality Organizations in Asian and Pacific Rim countries to be a primary mover for quality and continuous improvement for goods and services and quality of life in the Asia Pacific Region.

With her are (from left): The Asian Banker Managing Director Foo Boon Ping, LANDBANK Executive Vice President Julio D. Climaco, Jr., LANDBANK Senior Vice President Edward John T. Reyes, Startupbootcamp FinTech Co-Founder and Global COO Markus Gnirck, and FinFabrik CEO Alex Medana. LANDBANK’s BUILDERS program was awarded “Best SME Product” at The Asian Banker’s Philippine Country Awards 2016. The awards ceremony was held in conjunction with the Philippine International Banking Convention at the Shangri-La at the Fort, Bonifacio Global City. The Bringing Urbanization and Innovations thru LANDBANK’s Diverse Engineering Resource Support or BUILDERS program provides business loans to SMEs in the local construction market. It forms part of the Bank’s contribution to the Public-Private Partnership projects of the national government by extending credit support to private and public sector players in the industry. “This award is an affirmation of what we at LANDBANK are doing to help the SME sector and other major development players, whom we consider as allies in promoting economic growth. Through the BUILDERS program, we help contribute to the government’s thrust to promote inclusive growth through infrastructure development and also help create jobs in the process,” said LANDBANK Officer-in-Charge Cecilia C. Borromeo. Launched in 2014, the program crossed the billion-mark just a year after it was launched, with the bank’s SME loan book and deposits recording double-digit growth in the same year. As of June 2016, the program generated roughly one-third or 29% of the outstanding revenue of the Bank’s SME business with loan releases amounting to P19.6 billion lent to 230 contractors. This helped fund various projects, including farm-to-market roads and bridges, telecommunications infrastructure, residential units, commercial buildings, sanitary landfills, water and sewerage systems, sea walls, among other development projects. The Asian Banker Philippine Country Awards recognizes the most outstanding financial products, services, and organizations in the country and forms part of the prestigious awards programmes ran by The Asian Banker, covering the full spectrum of topics and areas that constitute the financial services industry. LANDBANK also bagged both the first and second places in the inaugural Talent Bank Philippines 2016 held as part of the Philippine Country Awards. The LANDBANK Operations Sector Chorale got the top prize with their all-original a cappella arrangement. They will be representing the Philippines to compete in the Talent Bank Asia at The Asian Banker Summit 2017 in Singapore. The LANDBANK Got Talent All Stars with their modern hip-hop rendition of traditional Filipino dances meanwhile won second place.

IFM also awarded the LANDBANK Mobile Loan Saver as “Most Innovative Lending Platform” and the Bank’s Gawad KATUBIGAN program as “Best CSR Initiative”.

LANDBANK established an Environmental Program and Management Department, which conducts the assessments of projects and provides the Bank’s lending units with an Environmental Assessment Report as a guide for the evaluation and approval of loan proposals. LANDBANK has reaped various other recognitions from local and international organizations for its EDD system, including the Green Leadership Award at the 2015 Asia Responsible Entrepreneurship Awards, the Sustainable Business Award from the Global Initiatives (Singapore) and Price Waterhouse Cooper Philippines, and the Outstanding Business Sustainability Achievement Award from the Global Sustainable Finance Network in 2014.
