Security Bank Corp. and its investment banking arm, Security Bank Capital Investment Corp., received nine awards at The Asset Triple A Sustainable Infrastructure Finance Awards 2026, recognizing their role in financing major infrastructure projects in the energy, water and transport sectors.

Among the top honors were Asia-Pacific Deal of the Year and Project Finance Deal of the Year for the P150-billion Terra Solar Philippines Inc. term loan, where Security Bank served as lender and Security Bank Capital acted as co-arranger. The financing supports the development of the MTerra Solar Project, which is expected to become the world’s largest integrated solar and battery storage facility.

The group also received Renewable Energy Deal of the Year — Hydro for the Olympia Violago Water & Power Inc. term loan and a Highly Commended recognition for the Ahunan Power Inc. project, both of which involve pumped hydro facilities that support renewable energy integration and strengthen the country’s energy security.

In the water sector, Security Bank Capital was recognized with the Water Deal of the Year award for its role as domestic co-lead underwriter in the P34.3-billion Maynilad Water Services Inc. initial public offering, while it also won Transport Deal of the Year for the P20-billion Metro Pacific Tollways Corp. bond issuance.

“These recognitions from The Asset reflect our continued focus on supporting corporate clients in financing projects that drive real impact,” said Yvonne Marcelo, executive vice president and head of the Corporate Banking Group at Security Bank.

“Through our lending relationships, we enable investments in clean energy, water, and transport that strengthen essential infrastructure and support long-term growth,” Marcelo added.

Virgilio Chua, president and chief executive officer of Security Bank Capital, said the awards underscore the company’s ability to execute complex transactions and help bring critical infrastructure projects to market.

“By combining capital markets expertise with strong execution, we help bring critical infrastructure projects to market and support the country’s energy transition,” Chua said.
