As part of its continuing commitment to promote financial literacy across the country, the Bank of the Philippine Islands (BPI) recently conducted a Financial Wellness Session for more than 40 employees of the General Santos City Local Government Unit (LGU).

 

Financial Wellness Coach Lyqa Maravilla led the session, equipping public servants with essential knowledge in personal finance management, with a focus on effective saving strategies, budgeting techniques, and making informed investment decisions. In the next session, Rhea Lorrain Tecson from BPI Agency Banking discussed the basics of digital financial literacy and cybersecurity, covering topics such as safe online banking practices and protecting personal information.

 

“This initiative reflects our strong commitment to financial education,” said Elena Torrijos, BPI Head of Public Affairs. “By partnering with LGUs and other key institutions, we aim to empower more Filipinos, especially those who serve as frontliners in their communities, to take charge of their financial future.

 

The Financial Wellness session in GenSan is just one of many initiatives that BPI has been undertaking to address the diverse financial education needs of Filipinos nationwide. As part of its ongoing advocacy, BPI aims to establish and sustain meaningful partnerships with more government partners across the country. By fostering these relationships, the bank contributes to ensuring that financial literacy becomes a long-term, widespread endeavor, benefitting public servants, educators, small business owners, and many others.

 

In line with its 173rd Anniversary this year, BPI remains steadfast in its mission to create a financially empowered society through strategic partnerships and targeted educational programs. These initatives form part of the bank’s vision of helping build a better Philippines – one family, one community at
