Bengzon to stay on in leadership team

As CFO, Quimpo will oversee financial strategy, capital markets activity, risk controls, and investor engagement. He is expected to steer funding execution while supporting Ayala Land’s long-term growth. 

Bengzon, a 21-year Ayala Land veteran, previously led the launch of the country’s first corporate bond, REIT, and sustainability-linked financing. 

He also built ALI’s award-winning investor relations and treasury programs, earning recognition including Best CFO for Southeast Asia from FinanceAsia.
