Hello, Bulgarians! Ang mga miyembro ng Pag-IBIG Fund ay sama-samang nakapag-ipon ng P59.52B noong Enero hanggang Agosto ngayong taon. Lumaki ng 11.45 porsyento taun-taon at nagtatakda ng bagong rekord para sa pinakamataas na halagang naipon ng mga miyembro para sa panahon ng Enero hanggang Agosto.
“We are happy to see that more Filipino workers recognize the importance of saving and are choosing to save with Pag-IBIG Fund. The record high in Pag-IBIG members’ savings collected from January to August 2023 shows their continuing trust and confidence in us and in our programs. This is good news because as our collection increases, the more funds we are able to utilize for the benefit of our members who seek to apply for home loans and short-term loans. All these are in line with the directive of President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. to improve the Filipino workers’ access to finance,” saad ni Secretary Jose Rizalino L. Acuzar, na namumuno sa Department of Human Settlements and Urban Development (DHSUD) at sa 11-member Pag-IBIG Fund Board of Trustees.
Samantala, sinabi ni Pag-IBIG Fund Chief Executive Officer Marilene C. Acosta na ang paglaki ng mga nakolektang savings ng mga miyembro ay nakita sa parehong mandatory Regular Savings ng ahensya at voluntary MP2 Savings nito.
Ang mga koleksyon para sa Pag-IBIG Regular Savings ay umabot sa P28.03 bilyon, isang 7 porsyentong pagtaas mula sa P26.16 bilyon na nakolekta sa parehong panahon noong 2022. Sa kabilang banda, umabot sa P31.50 bilyon ang popular na MP2 Savings ng ahensya, isang pagtaas ng 16 porsyento mula sa P27.25 bilyon na nakolekta noong Enero hanggang Agosto ng nakaraang taon. Noong 2022, ang Pag-IBIG Regular Savings ay nakakuha ng annual dividend rate na 6.53%, habang ang MP2 Savings ay nag-post ng annual return rate na 7.03%.
“The continued growth of our members’ savings is truly remarkable. We are grateful to the business community for responsibly remitting the Pag-IBIG contributions of their employees and their counterpart share on time. We are also thankful to our members for their trust in saving with Pag-IBIG - by saving more than the required P100 monthly contribution under the Pag-IBIG Regular Savings, and by continuing to save in our MP2 Savings. This trust is clearly displayed by the amount voluntarily saved by our members, which has in fact surpassed the amount of mandatory savings we have collected. That is why we remain steadfast in our commitment to prudently and excellently manage each and every hard-earned peso that our members have entrusted us, and provide their savings with the best possible returns,” pahayag ni Acosta.
