CEBU, Philippines — State-owned Development Bank of the Philippines President and Chief Executive Officer Emmanuel G. Herbosa was named Outstanding CEO in the recently-concluded Association of Development Financing Institutions in Asia and the Pacific Development Awards held in Manila, ADFIAP officials said.
“It is an honor to be in the league of corporate leaders and exemplars in the industry. However, this award is not about me but about DBP’s solid advocacies and the mission we’ve embarked to accomplish,” Herbosa said during the awarding rites. The Outstanding CEO Award serves as the highlight of the ADFIAP Development Awards, which is an annual program that honors member institutions that have undertaken or assisted projects that generated considerable development impact in their respective countries.
He said DBP would bolster its digital banking capabilities as it continues to leverage on technology to expand its customer touchpoints while delivering innovative financial services to key customer segments and actively pursuing its financial inclusion goals.
