The Philippine Stock Exchange (PSE) has acquired the Social Security System’s (SSS) 1.54 percent stake in Philippine Dealing System Holdings Corp. (PDSHC), raising its total ownership to 79.94 percent.

The deal strengthens PSE’s control over the country’s fixed-income and foreign exchange market infrastructure, positioning it to lead future reforms and integration. 

On the same day, April 2, 2025, PSE also closed a 0.06 percent acquisition from Insular Investment Corp.

These transactions follow earlier closings with Singapore Exchange (SGX), Whistler Technologies (WTSI), San Miguel Corp., Golden Astra, AIA, FINEX Foundation, IHAP, and the Bankers Association of the Philippines (BAP) and some of its member banks. 

PSE’s acquisition spree began in December 2024, building on its initial 20.98 percent stake.
