Sustainability reporting serves as a platform for presenting the Bank’s environmental, social, and governance (ESG) performance alongside the corresponding economic value generated by these initiatives. Through its sustainability reports, BPI aims to demonstrate transparency and accountability to its diverse stakeholders, including employees, clients, investors, regulators, and the general public.
BPI published its first Sustainability Report aligned with the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) Standards in 2008, 11 years ahead of the issuance of Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Memorandum Circular No. 4 (2019), which formally mandated sustainability reporting for publicly listed companies in the Philippines.

Support for the Task Force on Climate-Related Financial Disclosures (TCFD)
In May 2021, BPI became a supporter of the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD), joining 12 other signatories in the Philippines, seven of which are members of the Ayala Group of Companies. As a TCFD supporter, BPI voluntarily commits to disclosing its governance practices, strategies, and risk management processes related to climate change. This includes reporting on the actual and potential impacts of climate-related risks and opportunities on the Bank’s businesses, operations, and long-term strategy.
