The Land Bank of the Philippines (LANDBANK) was awarded with Outstanding Development Project Award under the Human Capital Development category for its Management and Leadership Development (MLD) Program. The distinction was conferred by the Association of Development Financing Institutions in Asia and the Pacific (ADFIAP) during its 40th Annual Meeting last May 10-12, 2017 in Macao SAR, China. The MLD program aims to strengthen the Bank’s Succession planning by ensuring the availability of a highly trained and qualified management pool. Programs under it include the Management Training Program (MTP), Branch Officers Development Program (BODP), Lending Officers Development Program (LODP), and Leadership Development Program (LDP). AVP Joselito Vallada of Human Resources Management Group and AVP Emmanuel Hio Jr of Organization Development Department received the award on behalf of the Bank. “We thank the ADFIAP for the recognition that affirmed the significance of the distinct major programs under the MLD framework for the Bank's talents,” Vallada said in his acceptance speech. Part of ADFIAP’s recognition is the integrated MTP curriculum that lets the participants immerse in LANDBANK-assisted cooperatives as a way of instilling the Bank’s mandate of countryside development. Presently, 57 graduates of MTP occupy managerial positions with 55 leading critical departments/units tasked in accomplishing the Bank’s strategic objectives. The ADFIAP Development Awards recognize and honor member-banks which have undertaken and/or assisted projects that have created a development impact in their respective countries. The Institutional Awards have nine categories namely: human resource development, environmental development, SME development, infrastructure development, technology development, trade development, local economic development, development finance – led poverty reduction, and corporate governance. In July 2016, the MLDP was also awarded as the Graduate Employment Programme of the Year- Philippines by the Asian Banking and Finance Magazine.
READ MOREBSP Governor and Monetary Board Chairman Nestor A. Espenilla Jr. and Monetary Board Member Juan D. De Zuñiga Jr. present the “Gold Hall of Fame Award” for the Credit Surety Fund category to LANDBANK President and CEO Alex V. Buenaventura and Executive Vice President for Agricultural and Development Lending Edward John T. Reyes at the 14th Awards Ceremony and Appreciation Lunch for BSP Stakeholders. For its outstanding contribution to the Credit Surety Fund (CSF) Program led by the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas, LANDBANK was conferred with the “Gold Hall of Fame” award in the 14th Awards Ceremony and Appreciation Lunch for BSP Stakeholders held recently at the BSP Complex in Manila. The Gold Hall of Fame is given to awardees that have won in the same category for three consecutive years. LANDBANK has been consecutively recognized as an “Outstanding Lending Bank” under the CSF category since 2013. “We are grateful for this recognition, which inspires us all the more to strengthen our support for the Credit Surety Fund program. We strongly share the program’s objective of making bank credit more accessible to MSMEs, who are our important partners for progress and development,” said LANDBANK President and CEO Alex V. Buenaventura. Initiated by BSP in 2008, the Credit Surety Fund is a credit enhancement scheme that aims to improve the bankability and credit worthiness of microenterprises and SMEs including cooperatives, which are short of collaterals and often face difficulty in obtaining loans from banks due to lack of collaterals, credit knowledge, and credit records. The fund is created by pooling cash contributions from participating cooperatives, local government units and other partner institutions. As of December 2016, LANDBANK has approved more than P3 billion in loans under the program, of which P1.8 billion was released to 35,373 CSF beneficiaries all over the country. Meanwhile, of the Bank’s approved contributions at P116.9 million, P90.3 million was released to 37 CSFs nationwide as of end-2016. LANDBANK also received awards for “Best CSF Lending Bank” and “Outstanding CSF Program Partner”. Themed “Transforming Shared Visions into Dynamic Partnership”, the awards ceremony is a “tribute to institutions that have continuously supported the BSP’s statistical initiatives, information requirements, advocacy programs and the effective delivery of its function”.

For the fifth straight year, LANDBANK received a Certificate of Merit at the Karlsruhe Sustainable Finance Awards, this time for its “Ecosystem-Responsive (ER) Approach to Development Financing,” recognized under the Outstanding Sustainable Project Financing category. Conferred by the Global Sustainable Finance Network, the award recognizes longterm financing of outstanding projects that “benefit local communities, protect the environment, and ensure reliable returns to investors and lenders”. First of its kind among financial institutions in the country, LANDBANK’s ER fund-sourcing scheme was designed to ensure official development assistance funds reach and empower the poor, and reduce their vulnerability to financial distress, debt, and poverty. Included in this financing scheme are programs being implemented by LANDBANK with funding from the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA), the World Bank and the KfW of Germany (Kreditanstalt für Wiederaufbau). “This recognition is a validation that we are on track in helping reduce poverty by providing access to bigger funding sources for projects that promote sustainable development and inclusive growth,” LANDBANK President and CEO Alex Buenaventura said. The award was received by Corporate Banking Group Head/SVP Ma. Celeste Burgos and Northern and Central Luzon Lending Group Head/SVP Filipina Monje at the ceremony which was held as part of the annual Global Sustainable Finance Conference held in Karlsruhe, Germany. LANDBANK has consistently received various recognitions in the Karlsruhe Sustainable Finance Awards for the past five years, including Certificate of Merit - Outstanding Sustainable Project Financing Category (2013); Outstanding Business Sustainability Achievement award (2014); Certificate of Merit - Sustainable Financial Products and Services category for its Environmental Due Diligence system (2015); and Certificate of Merit - Best Innovation in Sustainable Financial Products and Services Category for the Climate SMART (Synergistic Mitigation, Adaptation, Resiliency, and Transformation) (2016). Karlsruhe Resolution Meanwhile, LANDBANK also signed the “Karlsruhe Resolution” which supports the United Nations-backed sustainable development goals (SDGs) and the Paris Climate Agreement (COP21), collectively referred to as “Agenda 2030” during the 7th Global Sustainable Finance Conference (GSFC 7) held on the same day. LANDBANK, represented by Corporate Banking Group Head/Senior Vice President Ma. Celeste Burgos (second from left), together with other delegates of the 7th Global Sustainable Finance Conference (GSFC 7) sign the “Karlsruhe Resolution” Over 200 delegates from more than 30 countries signed the resolution that stresses the important role of the financial services industry in achieving the aspirations of Agenda 2030 such as, among others, financing and investing in the implementation of SDGs and COP21 projects in their respective countries. The resolution also encourages governments and regulators to create policy frameworks that promote investments in innovation that will contribute in creating a green, inclusive, and sustainable economy. It also calls for a collective global action to ensure a level-playing field for all financial sector players. The crafting of the Karlsruhe Resolution was a joint undertaking of the European Organization for Sustainable Development (EOSD), the Association of Development Financing Institutions in Asia and the Pacific (ADFIAP), the Association of African Development Finance Institutions (AADFI) and the City of Karlsruhe.

Maynilad Water Services (Maynilad) and National Water Resources Board (NWRB) conferred the awards for LANDBANK’s environmental programs – Manila Bay SUNSET Program Partnership and Adopt-A-Watershed Phase II – at the second World Water Day Awards. Manila Bay SUNSET Program Partnership is LANDBANK’s flagship environmental program, created to implement a sustainable approach to protect and conserve the Manila Bay – considered one of the best natural harbors in Southeast Asia. Meanwhile, Adopt-A-Watershed is LANDBANK’s program, in partnership with the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR), for the rehabilitation of denuded watersheds in different areas nationwide to contribute to the government’s National Greening Program. Now on its second year, World Water Day Awards recognizes individuals and institutions from the academe, government and non-government agencies, and the private sector that made “a difference in the area of water access and environmental sustainability.” The annual award-giving event served as the culminating activity of the World Water Day celebration in March. “People who work in water-related sectors are often not recognized for their efforts, and it is our intent to change that through the World Water Day Awards. Though only on its second year, the mission of this awards program is to give recognition to remarkable water professionals, whose work has created quite an impact not only in the industry, but also in our society,” Maynilad President and CEO Ramoncito S. Fernandez said. LANDBANK was nominated by DENR for the awards for the Bank’s CSR environmental efforts.
