The CFO, an attached agency of the Office of the President, is mandated to promote and protect the interests, rights, and welfare of overseas Filipinos while strengthening their economic, social, and cultural ties with the Philippines. “This partnership between BDO and CFO is closing the gap of what BDO has been doing for overseas Filipinos and their families in the Philippines,” said Former Department of Labor and Employment Secretary Marianito Roque. He added that remittance is a form of communication between Filipinos abroad and their loved ones. “Families maintain communication because of remittance. And BDO is bringing families together by connecting them with each other through remittance.” Genie T. Gloria, senior vice president and head of BDO Remit, emphasized […]

How an entrepreneur banked on the right business prescription for success Ma. Florencita Cansino, a Davao-based entrepreneur and founder of Hyatt Diagnostics System, Inc. was accustomed to providing diagnostics services for Filipinos heading overseas for employment. But when the pandemic struck, business operations halted, leaving her in a challenging position. Rather than dwelling on setbacks, Cansino found ways to turn things around. Her other business, Goldylab Enterprises, specializing in medical supplies and products, pivoted to meet the urgent need for COVID-19 testing equipment. This strategic move not only generated profits for Goldylab but also provided financial support to Hyatt Diagnostics. Cansino likened this resilience to how the country’s leading bank stood by her company in its early days. “BDO was with Hyatt during its infancy stage. We always took out loans from BDO because we couldn’t compete effectively at the start, using our own money. We needed additional capital for […]
