Philippine Economic Zone Authority (PEZA) director general Tereso Panga and BDO Unibank Inc. executive vice president Charles M. Rodriguez signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) on March 10, 2025, at the PEZA head office to strengthen investment promotion and facilitation.
The partnership leverages PEZA’s mandate to attract investments, generate exports and create jobs, alongside BDO’s extensive network, global reach, and financial expertise in trade, commerce and investment.
“Strategic partnerships like this strengthen our ability to attract investors and ensure our ecozones remain prime locations for growth, innovation, and sustainability,” Panga said.
PEZA said it recognizes BDO’s strong commitment to financial inclusion and business expansion, aligning with its goal to drive regional development and position the Philippines as a top investment hub.
“As PEZA’s newest IPP, we aim to maximize the benefits of the CREATE MORE Law and its IRR to drive more foreign direct investment,” said BDO executive vice president Charles Rodriguez.
