Private Executive Capital Governance Roundtable 

Manila | March 26, 2026 | The Peninsula

In partnership with the Canadian Chamber of Commerce of the Philippines and Accenture. 

A Closed-Door Executive Dialogue on Capital Governance 

The first AIP Forum in the Philippines convenes a select group of enterprise capital decision makers to address a fundamental leadership question:
How do Philippine infrastructure and energy organisations allocate capital transparently, defensibly, and strategically in an era of constraint and transition?
This forum is strictly invitation-only and limited to senior capital governance leaders. 

Why This Discussion Matters in the Philippines 

Major Philippine conglomerates and infrastructure groups are navigating: 

• Centralised board-level capital approval structures 
• Increasing infrastructure demand under fiscal constraints 
• Energy transition and resilience requirements 
• Regulatory scrutiny and stakeholder accountability 

In the Philippines, capital allocation authority often sits at the holding company, board investment committee, CFO, or strategy level. This forum is designed for those leaders.
To preserve discussion quality, participation is limited to approximately 15 senior leaders

What Is Asset Investment Planning? 

Asset Investment Planning is an enterprise capital governance discipline.
It enables leadership teams to: 

• Compare competing capital projects objectively 
• Quantify trade-offs across growth, risk, reliability, and sustainability 
• Align portfolio decisions with board-level strategy 
• Improve transparency in investment defensibility 

Globally, leading infrastructure organisations have modernised their capital decision frameworks to move beyond fragmented spreadsheets toward structured portfolio optimisation.
The Philippines is at a pivotal moment to do the same.
