“Our investment roadmap is more than just a capex plan that channels resources for strategic and long-term value creation. We are strengthening our portfolio to align with the Yuchengco Group’s commitment to future-proof our stakeholders and remain catalysts for nation-building and sustainable growth,” Tan said.

P4.2 billion of HI’s total two-year capex plan is directed towards expanding its property portfolio.
