Home Credit Philippines recently conducted a series of financial wellness workshops across its National Capital Region offices to help employees strengthen financial resilience amid ongoing economic challenges in the Philippines.
The initiative comes as the latest 2025 Consumer Finance and Inclusion Survey from the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas revealed that while 74% of Filipino adults now demonstrate basic financial literacy, only 30% have enough savings to handle emergencies or income disruptions.
Centered on the theme “Building a Financially Secure Future,” the workshops encouraged employees to develop smarter money habits and long-term financial planning strategies. The sessions were led by financial advocates Fitz Villafuerte and Kimmy Batallones.
The program also aligned with the celebration of International Women’s Month, recognizing the critical role women play in household financial management.
Barbara Mecua, Chief People Officer of Home Credit Philippines, said the company aims to build a financially resilient workforce capable of making informed financial decisions both inside and outside the workplace.
Employees who attended the workshops highlighted the value of goal-setting and personal growth in achieving financial security. The company noted that its broader financial wellness campaigns have already reached over 30 million Filipinos through online and on-ground initiatives focused on improving money management habits.
Beyond financial literacy, Home Credit Philippines also continues to promote wellness and community engagement through activities such as the recently concluded Takbo #ParaSaLife events in Manila and Cebu.
Home Credit Philippines operates as a financing company licensed and supervised by the Securities and Exchange Commission and the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas.
