This is the eighth time that the bank received such recognition and its sixth straight win since first earning the prestigious award in 2013. 

BDO won the award due to its strong financial performance, contribution to the domestic markets, capital raising, advisory, transaction banking performance and environment social and governance initiatives.

In addition to the Best Domestic Bank award, BDO and subsidiary BDO Private Bank were recognized for their participation in the P73.5-billion syndicated loan that Bloomberry Resorts & Hotels Inc. secured to refinance obligations and fund investments.
