Why it matters 

The 2026 awards drew more than 350 private banks and wealth managers from nearly 100 countries, underscoring intensifying global competition for affluent client assets and advice leadership.

The big picture 

The recognition highlights Security Bank Wealth’s focus on consistent advice, disciplined investment management, and long-term solutions—areas that are gaining importance as clients navigate volatility, cross-border opportunities, and shifting rate cycles.

What they’re saying

“Winning this award for the sixth year in a row reflects the trust our clients place in us and the consistency of our Wealth offering,” said Rene Aguirre, SVP and Wealth Segment head of Security Bank. “Our focus has always been on delivering sound advice, supported by strong investment capabilities and service excellence, across every stage of our clients’ wealth journey.”

How it works

 Security Bank Wealth operates on a “tripod” model—relationship management, investment advisory, and product expertise—designed to deliver integrated, client-centric solutions. In a company release, the bank said this approach combines personalized advice, disciplined portfolio construction, and access to onshore and offshore investments, underpinned by governance and risk discipline.

Client edge

“This recognition from Euromoney affirms our commitment to building solid client relationships based on trust, consistency, and long-term value creation,” said Binky Mirabueno, SVP and Wealth Relationship management head of Security Bank. “It reflects the strength of our Wealth Relationship Managers, our client-centric culture, and our ability to meet global standards while serving the unique needs of high-net-worth Filipino clients.”
