Conglomerate Ayala Corp. is poised for further expansion as it sets its sights on bolstering its already formidable operations in the coming years.

In an interview with Bloomberg TV, Cezar Consing, the President and CEO of Ayala Corp., unveiled the group’s strategic focus on mergers and acquisitions (M&A), highlighting its commitment to building in-house M&A capabilities to seize lucrative opportunities on the horizon.

Consing highlighted several factors, including capital requirements, generational shifts, and market dynamics, which are expected to create a conducive environment for M&A activities in the near future.

With a diverse portfolio spanning banking, real estate, telecommunications, energy, healthcare, and logistics, the Ayala Group has solidified its presence as a dynamic force within the Philippine business landscape.

The conglomerate’s multifaceted operations position it strategically to seize emerging opportunities and spearhead growth across key sectors, driving progress and innovation in the nation’s economy.

Ayala successfully raised P13.11 billion through the offering of preferred Class A shares. The proceeds from the offering will be allocated towards refinancing Philippine peso-denominated bonds and short-term loans, funding capital expenditures, and partially refinancing callable preferred B shares due in 2023.
