In this year's competition, Cortesi showed grace, intelligence, and candor in conquering the Miss Universe Philippines stage. She shares, “I am excited to be part of the Miss Universe Philippines Organization. I will be working with them to advance my advocacies for women’s education and protection of our country’s indigenous people and rich cultural heritage.” </p><p style="text-align: left;">Besides her advocacies, Cortesi proves that she’s a queen with a uniquely beautiful heart. Throughout the Miss Universe Philippines pageant, she has been outspoken about her deep love and care for her family. “Since I was a kid, my parents have taught me the power of gratitude and kindness for everyone I meet. I always believe that being grateful creates a ripple effect and in turn, brings the best out of people.” </p><p style="text-align: left;">Cortesi further emphasized the importance of strong bonds with family and loved ones. In her winning answer at the final question and answer portion, she said, “If I could stop time, I would spend it with my family, especially my mother. It’s been two years since I haven’t spent time with my family because they live in Italy, and I came here in the Philippines just by myself. If I had a chance to spend one day, I would definitely be with my mom, and I would just tell her how much I love her and I miss her.”</p><p style="text-align: left;">As the newest PLDT Home Ambassador, Cortesi shows that strong connections can powerfully conquer distances. After winning the Miss Universe Philippines title, she even shared a heartwarming tribute for her mom on social media with the caption: “Far from each other, but always connected. To make you proud is the greatest fulfillment of my life.”</p><p style="text-align: left;">Joining Cortesi as this year’s Miss Universe Philippines titleholders are Miss Universe Philippines Tourism Michelle Marquez Dee, Miss Universe Philippines Charity, Pauline Cucharo Amelinckx, Miss Universe Philippines 1st runner-up Annabelle McDonnell, and Miss Universe Philippines 2nd runner-up Ma. Katrina Llegado. </p><p style="text-align: left;">PLDT Home is the official broadband partner of Miss Universe Philippines. As the fastest and most powerful internet connection in the country, PLDT Home has been enabling families – just like Cortesi’s – to do things better and to build stronger and more meaningful bonds at home. </p><p style="text-align: left;">Cortesi will represent the Philippines at the Miss Universe 2022 pageant to be held in December in San José, California.</p><p style="text-align: left;">Follow and be part of her Miss Universe journey of using the hashtags #BeAStrongerYou, #MUPH2022, and #UniquelyBeautiful.

BPI continues to focus on customer obsession, digitalization, and sustainability

Limcaoco said reinvention is a way of life for BPI and is key to its sustained leadership throughout the years.  </p><p>“We will continue to reinvent banking so that we can better serve the evolving needs of our clients. Digitalization, customer obsession and sustainability remain to be our focus as we move forward to a post-pandemic environment,” Limcaoco said.</p><p><br /></p><p><b><u>Digitalization</u></b></p><p>Many companies purposely reduced expenses during the pandemic, while BPI spent nearly PHP 9 billion or about 9% of total revenue in 2021 on technology, including new digital initiatives such as building and improving customer engagement platforms and onboarding new partners in its open banking business.</p><p>In October 2021, it announced plans to acquire and engage clients through seven customer engagement platforms, each specifically designed to fulfill the banking needs of a particular segment. Five platforms—BPI Online, BPI Mobile, BPI Trade, BizLink, and BanKo app—are already available today, with two more slated for release this year.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhe3OYCqXzzVfk2zhmok9HxksehVyv6XjG0nWIXEhCqQMFThhMk1eaoD6olCgBCv5Okrv0nsfaf35sZ9iDX961doG5NJ-tytdZzQ3cUyLFPQ9cYZIOhtiWwXFpLEyKJvTlrJyjrySMqi_VaZSPKodvZdMSwZqcjpP_kKigKB_M1gMzfFcUneL_7eyMR/s753/digital.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="499" data-original-width="753" height="424" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhe3OYCqXzzVfk2zhmok9HxksehVyv6XjG0nWIXEhCqQMFThhMk1eaoD6olCgBCv5Okrv0nsfaf35sZ9iDX961doG5NJ-tytdZzQ3cUyLFPQ9cYZIOhtiWwXFpLEyKJvTlrJyjrySMqi_VaZSPKodvZdMSwZqcjpP_kKigKB_M1gMzfFcUneL_7eyMR/w640-h424/digital.JPG" width="640" /></a></div><br /><p><br /></p><p>BPI’s ongoing digitalization journey continues to reinvent the customer interaction and experience. As of 2021, 4.9 million of its 8.46 million client base were enrolled in digital channels. Of the number, 3.24 million were active, up 20% from the previous year. BPI also has a growing list of over 80 API partners covering nearly 800 products and services, with over 100 million transactions in 2021, a 75% growth from the previous year.</p><p>“In 2021, we accelerated our goal to transform our Bank for the future while executing and growing through the pandemic,” Limcaoco said.</p><p><br /></p><p><b><u>Customer Obsession</u></b></p><p>BPI also seeks to be heroes for its customers with a shift in mindset. In 2021, BPI created a new position for a Chief Customer and Marketing Officer, whose job is to put customer needs first. The bank also launched a concise version of its Core Values wherein everyone in the bank must be N.I.C.E, which touches on the need to be Nurturing, acting with Integrity, being Customer obsessed, and acting with Excellence. </p><p>BPI likewise strengthened its coverage of various client segments, by forming a consolidated consumer banking unit that focuses on providing relevant financial solutions to the retail market.  Corporate banking continues to cater to large corporations, Business banking covers the small, and medium enterprises (SMEs), while Banko, it’s microfinance unit looks after the self-employed micro entrepreneurs (SEMEs).</p><p>Limcaoco acknowledged the role of BPI’s 19,000-strong workforce in delivering excellent financial solutions and service to clients. “They have stood by our customers throughout these challenging times, and they are very much the driving force behind the Bank we have become,” he said.</p><p><br /></p><p><b><u>Sustainability</u></b></p><p>BPI has also affirmed its longstanding commitment to sustainability. Last year, it officially rolled out its Sustainability Agenda. As of end-2021, about 48% of the bank’s portfolio was tied to initiatives that contribute to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.</p><p>BPI is also the first and only Philippine bank to give a time-bound commitment to halve coal generation financing in its portfolio by 2026 and bring it down to zero by 2032. It also supports the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD). BPI had also announced that it would no longer finance green-field coal power projects going forward.  In addition, BPI pioneered the first energy transition financing loan that would enable an existing coal plant to close 15 years ahead of its economic life.</p><p>These initiatives have drawn recognition for BPI in terms of economic, social, and governance (ESG) standards. MSCI, S&P Global, and Sustainalytics gave BPI the highest marks among Philippine Banks in ESG Ratings in 2021.</p><div><br /></div>
