Mon Abrea Leads Tax and Investment Briefings Across Six Key Asian Economies in Partnership with Foreign Chambers and Philippine Trade Missions
Bangkok, Thailand – The International Tax and Investment Roadshow – Asia Cluster successfully wrapped up this April, completing high-level briefings and strategic dialogues with foreign investors and business leaders in South Korea, Japan, Thailand, Singapore, Taiwan, and Vietnam. The regional roadshow was led by Philippine tax expert and Asian Consulting Group (ACG) founder Mon Abrea, in collaboration with foreign chambers of commerce, and supported by the Philippine Embassies and Philippine Trade and Investment Centers (PTIC) across Asia.
The roadshow focused on presenting the Philippines as a more stable and sustainable investment destination, amid ongoing global tax reforms and regional economic shifts. Abrea conducted targeted tax and investment briefings for multinational corporations, private equity groups, and trade organizations, offering practical insights into doing business in the Philippines—particularly on tax compliance, fiscal incentives under the CREATE MORE, and ESG investment opportunities.
A key highlight of the roadshow was Mon Abrea’s participation in the CREATE MORE Roadshow in Taipei, Taiwan, led by Undersecretary Perry Rodolfo of the Board of Investments (BOI). The initiative showcased enhanced fiscal incentives under the CREATE Act and promoted the Philippines’ priority investment sectors. In support of this, PTIC Director Anthony Rivera organized a high-level investment forum and panel discussion featuring key officials from the Bases Conversion and Development Authority (BCDA), Subic Bay Metropolitan Authority (SBMA), Clark Development Corporation (CDC), and the Philippine Economic Zone Authority (PEZA). As the country’s leading tax expert, Abrea conducted focused tax briefings during two investor roundtables with SBMA and BCDA, offering practical guidance on tax compliance and incentives. BCDA President and CEO Joshua Bingcang also joined the discussions to promote strategic infrastructure and ecozone development, reinforcing the Philippines’ position as a regional hub for Taiwanese expansion.
Throughout the Asia Cluster, Abrea’s briefings—held in partnership with foreign chambers and trade missions—provided a clear message: the Philippines is open for business and evolving into a greener, smarter, and more transparent investment hub in Asia.
The roadshow also marked the launch of ACG’s satellite office in Singapore, in partnership with the Philippine Chamber of Commerce in Singapore (PhilCham SG), to provide on-the-ground support for foreign investors.
ACG is set to open additional satellite offices in Sydney, San Francisco, Dubai, and London, reinforcing its mission to elevate the Philippines on the global investment map through tax advisory excellence and investor confidence-building.
Up next, the roadshow moves to Oceania and Western Europe this May, where Abrea will launch his new book, Reimagining the World Without Climate Change, alongside a special CREATE MORE Edition of Why Invest in the Philippines, developed to highlight sustainable, tax-incentivized investment opportunities aligned with global ESG goals.
