Ayala Land, Inc. (ALI) was awarded a Special Citation by the Philippine Dealing System Holdings Corp. (PDS Group) for being the Pioneer Issuer of ASEAN Sustainability-Linked Bonds (SLBs) in the Philippine debt capital market.

The recognition was presented during the 20th PDS Annual Awards held on April 4, 2025, which celebrated market stakeholders for their outstanding performance, leadership, innovation, and contribution to building a robust domestic capital market.

ALI’s SLBs was part of the P28 billion Sustainability-Linked Financing Program introduced in 2024, and aligns ALI’s financial commitments with its environmental targets. This reflects ALI’s dedication to advancing sustainability commitments while ensuring long-term value creation for investors.

This citation adds to five other prestigious recognitions received for ALI’s maiden ASEAN SLBs from highly regarded finance award-giving bodies. These include:

  • Best Structured Finance Deal in Southeast Asia and Most Innovative Deal in the Philippines from FinanceAsia
  • Best Sustainability-Linked Financing in the Philippines from The Asset Triple A Awards for Sustainable Finance
  • Best Sustainability-Linked Transaction and Best Local Currency Bond Deal of the Year in Southeast Asia from Alpha South East Asia Annual Issuer Awards

In addition to these achievements, ALI also received a Special Citation at the same PDS Annual Awards for being the Pioneer User of the e-Securities Issue Portal for Issuer Reports Module (e-SIP 2.0). This digital platform aims to streamline and digitize transaction flows in the country’s capital markets, enhancing efficiency and transparency.

Beyond process enhancements, the implementation of e-SIP 2.0 has contributed to lower storage costs and the elimination of voluminous paper-based submissions and reports—a move that supports sustainability by saving millions of trees.

ALI’s adoption of digital innovation began in May 2021, when it became the first company to list its corporate bond offering in the capital market and the Philippine Dealing & Exchange Corp. (PDEx) using e-SIP 1.0.

These multiple citations underscore ALI’s leadership in sustainable financing and digital transformation, reinforcing its role as a forward-thinking company in the Philippine capital markets.
