BIZ BUZZ: BDO gets the bag, too

The year is again looking rosy for the country’s biggest bank, and we still have three months left.

Apart from an anticipated surge in loan demand due to the recent interest rate cut, BDO Capital and Investment Corp. recently scored another win: its seventh consecutive Corporate and Investment Bank of the Year award at the Asian Banking and Finance Awards.

“BDO Capital remains focused on leading in debt capital markets and selectively pursuing public and private equity transactions,” the company said in a statement.

That’s not all: BDO Capital also scored the Project Infrastructure Finance Deal of the Year award for its role in the mammoth P100-billion Metro Rail Transit Line 7 project finance loan.

And as if that’s not enough, the Sy family-led investment bank took home the Green Deal of the Year award for being the joint issue manager and joint lead underwriter for Ayala-led ACEN Corp.’s P25-billion preferred share issuance.

What a year! Maybe there’s more coming in the last three months for BDO Capital?
