Metro Manila, Philippines – Financial milestones come in many forms. A first pay check deposited into a savings account. The keys to a family’s first home. A small business finally opening. A child’s college fund slowly growing. A retirement nest egg built over decades.
For 50 years, BDO has been a part of many of these stories.
Growing with Filipino dreams
Over five decades, BDO has grown alongside generations of Filipinos and the financial goals that matter to them. The young saver who opened a first account is now the parent saving for his child’s education. The entrepreneur who began with a small business went on to employ others. Families built homes, prepared for emergencies, planned for retirement and passed on money lessons to the next generation.
Through all these milestones, one thing has remained constant: BDO’s commitment to find ways to help clients move closer to their goals.
A golden thank you
As BDO marks its golden year, it is choosing to celebrate the people who helped shape its journey: its clients. It is also saying thank you in a way that gives customers even more reason to celebrate.
BDO is launching its 50th anniversary raffle, giving more than 250 customers the chance to win exciting prizes, including brand new hybrid cars that help reduce fuel cost and emission, along with SM Gift Passes for shopping.
To join, new clients can open a qualified account, register online once, and maintain the required balance for BDO Unibank or BDO Network Bank to earn raffle entries. Existing clients can also earn raffle entries by adding to their deposits and completing the one-time online registration.
The promo runs from August to December 2026 and features five raffle draws, with the fifth and final draw serving as the Grand Draw in January 2027 for eligible August to December participants.
The Next 50 Years
Fifty years is a long time, and much has changed in the way Filipinos manage money.
Transactions that once required a trip to the branch can now be completed online or through a mobile phone. Payments have become faster. Access to financial products has expanded. Customers today expect banking to keep pace with the way they live, work and manage their money.
Financial dreams have changed, too. For one generation, success may have meant owning a home and securing a pension. Younger Filipinos today may be saving for travel, building an emergency fund, launching a side business or investing to gain more financial freedom.
Tomorrow’s dreams may look different. And, while the goals may change, the need for a trusted financial partner remains.
That is why BDO continues to evolve alongside its clients, finding ways to make banking simpler, more accessible and more responsive to what they need today and what they hope to achieve tomorrow.
Because after 50 years, Filipinos are still dreaming. And BDO is still finding ways.
