BIZ BUZZ: Acevedo starts board duty at CLI

Remember what we said about Eugene Acevedo’s plan of “living life to the fullest” postretirement as president and CEO of Rizal Commercial Banking Corp.?

Well, we have some news.

The veteran banker has dipped his toes into real estate as one of the new independent directors of Cebu Landmasters Inc. (CLI).

While this has been official since early July, Acevedo made the announcement on his favorite platform LinkedIn (which is official in its own sense, too) on Wednesday.

And true to his promise of being more adventurous, he reportedly took his first meeting as director “waking up past midnight somewhere else across the globe.”

“I am inspired by the company’s plans and the CEO’s vision of the company’s future,” says the Cebu native.

We’re hoping that Acevedo gets the much deserved new adventure at CLI. After all, he needs a solid story to share with his family—and his cats!
