Security Bank Capital, the investment banking arm of Security Bank Corporation, proudly marks its 30th anniversary, reaffirming its commitment to drive sustainable growth and inclusive progress across the Philippines.
Since its founding in 1995, Security Bank Capital has stood at the forefront of the country’s financial landscape, arranging more than ₱1 trillion in funding for transformative projects spanning infrastructure, renewable energy, real estate, healthcare, manufacturing, and financial services. Each deal reflects the company’s dedication to financing ventures that not only yield financial returns but also create lasting social and environmental impact.
“Our journey over the past 30 years has been defined by purpose-driven finance,” said Virgilio Chua, President and CEO of Security Bank Capital. “Capital should do more than generate profits, it should generate progress. Whether it’s powering communities with clean energy or financing hospitals that improve healthcare access, our goal is to help industries grow responsibly and sustainably.”
Leading the Way in Sustainable Finance
In 2025, Security Bank Capital’s leadership in sustainable and impact finance earned global recognition. The firm was named Philippines’ Best Investment Bank for Financing by Euromoney, honored as the Best Investment Bank in the Philippines by Alpha Southeast Asia, and received a “Highly Commended” citation from FinanceAsia. These awards join past accolades from The Asset, ESG Business, and Asian Banking & Finance, cementing the firm’s reputation for technical excellence and nation-building leadership.
From 2022 to 2024, the firm successfully arranged and completed over ₱1.7 trillion in bond issuances, channeling capital into renewable energy, infrastructure, financial services, and government projects. It also closed ₱362 billion in private and project finance deals, fueling the growth of clean energy, water systems, and digital infrastructure nationwide.
A standout achievement includes a ₱150 billion project finance loan for an integrated 3,500MWp solar farm and 4,500MWh battery storage system, the largest of its kind in the world, supporting the Philippines’ renewable energy targets of 35% by 2030 and 50% by 2040. The firm also co-arranged a ₱100 billion syndicated financing for a major mass rail transit project in Northern Metro Manila, boosting connectivity, trade, and employment opportunities.
Security Bank Capital further pioneered the country’s first sustainability-linked bonds, tying financing incentives to measurable environmental milestones such as carbon reduction and renewable energy adoption—a milestone that sets new standards for responsible banking in the Philippines.
Empowering the Next Generation of Filipino Enterprises
Ranked among the top five investment banks in both debt and equity capital markets, Security Bank Capital continues to serve as a trusted partner for businesses aiming to scale responsibly.
“Our focus is clear, we want to be the preferred partner for sustainable finance in the Philippines,” Chua shared. “We’re investing in our people, our platforms, and our partnerships to help industries thrive while advancing national sustainability goals. Our legacy isn’t just the deals we’ve completed, it’s the communities we’ve uplifted and the future we’re helping to build.”
As Security Bank Capital celebrates three decades of purpose-driven finance, it looks ahead with the same passion and integrity that have defined its history championing innovation, sustainability, and inclusive growth for generations to come.
