BDO Capital
& Investment Corporation once again proved its dominance
in the Philippine investment banking industry as it garnered
accolades in the recent 2008 Country Awards for Achievement
of FinanceAsia, one of Asia's leading financial publishing
companies based in Hong Kong.
BDO Capital bagged the Best Investment Bank (three years
in a row) and Best Bond House (two years in a row) awards.
The awards covered the period 01 June 2007 to 31 May 2008.
BDO Capital topped the Dealogic league tables for Philippine
issuers in both equity and debt deals completed during
the past 12 months. It advised on most of the big IPOs
and follow-on offerings that came to market during the
period, including offers from Alliance Global and Aboitiz
Power, and topped the bond league tables, acting as
bookrunner on deals such as Ayala Corporation, First
Philippine Holdings and Quezon Power.
"Local investment banks in the Philippines are
measured almost entirely by their efforts in debt and
equity, and table-topping performances in both areas
confirm BDO Capital as the house to beat in the Philippine
investment banking," stated Finance Asia in their
July 2008 issue.
BDO Capital is the wholly owned investment banking
subsidiary of BDO. A full-service investment house,
BDO Capital connects businesses and institutions with
people, ideas, and capital through a wide range of advisory
and investment banking services as well as disciplined
planning, prioritized focus, and execution.
