MANILA, Philippines — The country’s main housing finance agency is set to report record gains last year during its annual stakeholders’ meeting slated on Feb. 8 at the Philippine International Convention Center in Pasay City.

Eduardo Del Rosario, chairman of the Housing and Urban Development Coordinating Council (HUDCC) and the Pag-IBIG Fund board of trustees, will give a public report on the Fund’s record-breaking growth in 2017 before stakeholders, industry partners, officers and guests.

He will focus on Pag-IBIG Fund’s highest-ever gross and net income, members’ savings collections, housing and short-term loan disbursements and collections, and sale of acquired properties, among others.

“It is with pride that we report Pag-IBIG Fund’s unprecedented feats in 2017. This is also in keeping with President Duterte’s directives on good governance and transparency. We have a huge responsibility laid on our shoulders. Providing our members with a decent home and guaranteeing their future through savings are our twin tasks. We are not allowed to fail,” Del Rosario said.

“2017 was the best year ever for Pag-IBIG Fund. And we’ve done it with flying colors. We’ve set so many new records as we continue to bring Pag-IBIG Fund to far greater heights,” Pag-IBIG Fund chief executive officer Acmad Rizaldy Moti said.

“It is customary for the HUDCC chairperson to deliver his annual report on the state of the Fund every year. As chairperson of the Pag-IBIG Fund board of trustees, Secretary Del Rosario is given the privilege to present the report that covers Pag-IBIG Fund’s programs, targets and accomplishments and service delivery in 2017,” Moti added.
