Two ministries from the Bangsamoro Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (BARMM) were honored as outstanding stakeholders of the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) during the Mindanao leg of the 2023 Outstanding BSP Stakeholders Appreciation Ceremony (OBSAC) at Limketkai Luxe Hotel, this city, December 5.
The Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Agrarian Reform (MAFAR), headed by Minister Mohammad Yacob, was named an Outstanding Partner for Sources of Information.
Similarly, the Ministry of Trade, Investment, and Tourism (MTIT)-Maguindanao Provincial Office, led by Provincial Director Romeo Diocolano, was acknowledged as an Outstanding Partner for Financial Advocacy and Inclusion.
MAFAR actively partnered with the BSP by providing vital regional data and insights for the 2022 BARMM economic development report.
MTIT Maguindanao, on the other hand, has been a consistent partner of BSP Cotabato Branch and BSP Mindanao Regional Office. It organized online financial education sessions and face-to-face activities in different local government units within its operational area.
Since 2004, OBSAC has served as a platform for BSP to honor valuable partnerships that positively affect the lives of Filipinos.
BSP Deputy Governor Bernadette Romulo-Puyat thanked its partners for their unwavering support. The awards, she explained, represent small tokens compared to their substantial contributions to BSP. She also specified that the partnership ensured the inclusion of every Filipino in the advocacies and initiatives of the government.
“With the help of our partners, BSP has provided an enabling environment for sustainable and inclusive growth. Together, we are pursuing a state where no Filipino is left behind," she said. (APB/PIA-10)
