The Philippine delegation, led by Finance Secretary Benjamin E. Diokno, discussed co-investment opportunities in Philippine public-private partnerships, particularly in infrastructure and renewable energy, with the Federal Holding and Investment Company (La Société Fédérale de Participations et d’Investissement or SFPIM) — Belgium’s sovereign wealth fund.

Koenraad Van Loo, CEO of SFPIM, shared that they are keen to visit the Philippines to explore partnerships in their priority sectors: finance, aeronautics, health, energy & utilities, transport & mobility, and impact investing. He also expressed interest in learning more about the Maharlika Investment Fund once operational.

SFPIM preserves the long-term stability of the Belgian economy by contributing to the anchoring of strategic assets through “smart capital solutions” for both promising and established companies.
