Ayala Corp. has received board approval to file a five-year shelf registration of up to P30 billion with the Securities and Exchange Commission, allowing the conglomerate to issue peso-denominated bonds through public offerings. This move gives Ayala flexibility to raise funds over time as market conditions allow, supporting its ongoing business expansions and strategic investments.
The company has been actively growing its portfolio. In 2025, it partnered with UAE’s premium supermarket Spinneys to open stores in the Philippines, marking Spinneys’ first venture outside the Gulf. It also teamed up with Thailand’s CP AXTRA, operator of Makro and Lotus’s, to explore retail, e-commerce, and co-investment opportunities, including reintroducing the Makro brand to the Philippines.
In logistics and healthcare, Ayala partnered with Denmark’s A.P. Moller Capital to expand AC Logistics and received capital from Singapore’s ABC Impact to grow its AC Health network of hospitals, clinics, and pharmacies. The group also secured US$100 million in 2025 from the Asian Development Bank and the Canadian Climate and Nature Fund to boost its electric vehicle charging network under ACMobility.
The bond shelf registration strengthens Ayala’s financial flexibility, allowing it to support these growth initiatives and respond quickly to investment opportunities in the Philippines and the region.
