LANDBANK plans sustainability bond offering

LAND BANK of the Philippines (LANDBANK) is set to issue sustainability bonds next quarter as it looks to expand its lending to its priority sectors.

“As part of its broader sustainable finance strategy, LANDBANK plans to offer sustainability bonds by the first quarter of 2026,” it said in a statement on Sunday.

“Proceeds from the bonds will support national development priorities, including agriculture, MSMEs (micro, small and medium enterprises), renewable energy, housing, and infrastructure. The planned issuance aims to mobilize long-term funding to scale up LANDBANK’s existing sustainable lending programs and further strengthen its leadership in sustainable finance.”

The bank has disbursed P176.48 billion in sustainable finance loans as of October, it said.

These loans supported initiatives related to renewable energy transition, clean transport, water access, housing, disaster resilience, and health system improvements.

In September, LANDBANK President and Chief Executive Officer Lynette V. Ortiz said the bank is eyeing to raise over P20 billion from a sustainability bond offering. The papers will be branded as “Asenso bonds” and are expected to have a tenor between one and five years, and could also be issued in multiple tranches.

LANDBANK’s net income climbed by 41.79% to P35.64 billion in the first nine months of 2025 from P25.14 billion in the same period last year. — Aubrey Rose A. Inosante

Fed Decides On Interest Rates Today—Here’s What To Watch For

The post Fed Decides On Interest Rates Today—Here’s What To Watch For appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Topline The Federal Reserve on Wednesday will conclude a two-day policymaking meeting and release a decision on whether to lower interest rates—following months of pressure and criticism from President Donald Trump—and potentially signal whether additional cuts are on the way. President Donald Trump has urged the central bank to “CUT INTEREST RATES, NOW, AND BIGGER” than they might plan to. Getty Images Key Facts The central bank is poised to cut interest rates by at least a quarter-point, down from the 4.25% to 4.5% range where they have been held since December to between 4% and 4.25%, as Wall Street has placed 100% odds of a rate cut, according to CME’s FedWatch, with higher odds (94%) on a quarter-point cut than a half-point (6%) reduction. Fed governors Christopher Waller and Michelle Bowman, both Trump appointees, voted in July for a quarter-point reduction to rates, and they may dissent again in favor of a large cut alongside Stephen Miran, Trump’s Council of Economic Advisers’ chair, who was sworn in at the meeting’s start on Tuesday. It’s unclear whether other policymakers, including Kansas City Fed President Jeffrey Schmid and St. Louis Fed President Alberto Musalem, will favor larger cuts or opt for no reduction. Fed Chair Jerome Powell said in his Jackson Hole, Wyoming, address last month the central bank would likely consider a looser monetary policy, noting the “shifting balance of risks” on the U.S. economy “may warrant adjusting our policy stance.” David Mericle, an economist for Goldman Sachs, wrote in a note the “key question” for the Fed’s meeting is whether policymakers signal “this is likely the first in a series of consecutive cuts” as the central bank is anticipated to “acknowledge the softening in the labor market,” though they may not “nod to an October cut.” Mericle said he…
