President’s Message

These are times that test the resolve of any organization to live up to its purpose. For BAIPHIL, the mission to support the banking industry in advocating good governance and enhancing capability has become even more compelling.

New challenges require new responses. Learning and development must remain a going concern for our members, not just to expand occupational competencies, but to stimulate fresh ways of thinking, develop a zeal for creating possibilities, and inspire an increasing readiness to engage uncertainty with agility and skill.

This year, we highlight the need to build resilience, both organizational and individual, through strong governance. BAIPHIL marks its 80th year in the midst of a raging pandemic, but we are determined to move it forward – robust and ever capable — for the future generations of banking professionals it is yet to serve.

We thank our leaders, partners and members for their unfailing support, as we press ahead.

ROMEL D. MENIADO

President, FY 2021-2022
