The Corporate Governance and Sustainability Committee assists the Board in fulfilling its corporate governance and sustainability responsibilities. It ensures the Board's effectiveness and due observance of sound corporate governance and sustainability principles and guidelines, and its oversight of the Bank's corporate governance and sustainability practices as embodied in the Bank's Articles of Incorporation, By-Laws and Manual on Corporate Governance and with respect to laws, rules and regulations on corporate governance and sustainability issued by the BSP, SEC, PSE and other regulatory bodies. The re-constitution of the Corporate Governance Committee as Corporate Governance and Sustainability Committee was approved by the board during its meeting last April 17, 2024.
