The Philippines is set to be the host of the International Tax and
Investment Conference dubbed "FAST FORWARD 2025" aimed to promote ESG
investing in the country. For those who don't know, that stands for
Environmental, Social and Governance, a way to evaluate sustainability
and ethical impact of a company.
The conference will be very
instrumental in this discussion and encouraging more foreign investments
in the country. March 26 will start panel discussions, exhibits on
local products and the ACG Global Awards to recognize champions and
advocates of sustainability. Lead Convenor for this event is Mon Abrea,
the CEO of Asian Consulting Group who's tax reform advocacy has moved
mountains in the region. To date, ACG has over 191 Billion pesos of
savings from BIR cases of their clients. Dr. Bing Limjoco Head of the
Philippine Franchise Association and Franchise Asia will be Vice
Chairman of this event.
The event will also mark the launch of Mon Abrea's newest book "Re-imagining the World Without Climate Change" which includes real world studies of FAST industries who follow ESG principles, proving it can be done. The press conference also was graced by the one and only Madame Loida Lewis, who was given honors before she left for New York. Young entrepreneur and actress Bea Binene also shared why she trusts ACG and how ESG efforts have made her even trust the firm more in managing her tax and businesses to this date.
Here's the press conference in its entirety!
