Security Bank Corp. has exceeded its 2025 sustainable finance target ahead of schedule, releasing P99.4 billion in green and social financing as of October 2025—18 percent above its full-year goal. The bank says the milestone reflects strong demand for sustainable investments in the Philippines and supports its ambition to become a leading partner in the sector.
Most of the funding, amounting to P69.9 billion, went to green projects that advance the country’s transition to cleaner and more resilient infrastructure. The bank’s financing helped add 1.37 gigawatts of renewable energy capacity through solar and wind developments, supported the construction of four green-certified buildings, and enabled the rehabilitation of eight kilometers of electric train rails in Metro Manila to improve safety and reliability.
Security Bank also expanded its social impact, disbursing P29.5 billion to initiatives that broaden access to essential services and support inclusive growth. These projects delivered clean water to about 500,000 households, increased supply chain capacity by 1.5 million TEUs, added 544 hospital beds and clinic rooms, and generated socio-economic opportunities for more than 400,000 people, most of whom are women.
To accelerate progress, the bank has been strengthening its internal expertise through training programs with the International Finance Corp., the Department of Energy, and the Board of Investments. Staff received training on energy efficiency laws, participated in an IFC-led course on financing green projects, and completed field visits to renewable energy and green-building sites to better assess sustainable finance opportunities.
Security Bank has also expanded its presence in industry platforms, becoming the only financial institution represented at Solar & Storage Live Philippines and sharing its strategies at the Philippine Conference on Energy Efficiency and Conservation. The bank says these engagements, along with continued collaboration with clean-energy developers and government partners, will help unlock larger investments in the country’s energy transition.
