“No one is ever perfect, and when you stumble, you admit and address,” said BPI President and CEO Jose Teodoro K. Limcaoco.
They assured the people that the incident will only strengthen their resolve “to always pursue excellence, uphold the highest banking standards, and repay the trust and confidence our customers place in us.”
To prevent it from happening again, BPI said that they will review and improve their systems, processes, and controls.
The BPI has already provided an update to the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) on the resolution of the issue. They were also asked by the BSP to provide a timeline of the incident.
As of September 2022, BPI is the country’s third-biggest bank in terms of assets.
