UBX, the fintech arm of Aboitiz-led UnionBank, celebrated the formal launch of its partnership with Tokyo-based financial services conglomerate SBI Holdings Inc. last November 15 with the theme ‘A New Chapter Begins: UBX Welcomes SBI’. Following its announcement in September, the celebration served as a symbolic kickoff to this pivotal alliance.
The strategic investment of SBI allows UBX to tap into a substantially broader ecosystem, enhancing its capacity in delivering cutting-edge, transformative digital solutions.
“SBI brings a level of scale and expertise that allows us to deliver solutions to enterprises in ways that are both robust and transformative. Now, with SBI’s involvement, UBX gains access to a much broader ecosystem of financial and technological resources. This enables us to better serve Filipino enterprises through scalable digital solutions,” UBX President John Januszczak said.
With SBI’s backing, UBX will also explore ways to expand its range of services to cover emerging needs in digital finance, ensuring that enterprises have the tools they need to thrive in the modern economy. These solutions are designed not only to support business growth but to foster economic resilience across the Philippines.
“Our shared belief in the transformative power of finance makes this partnership uniquely powerful. Together, we aim to tackle the challenges of the digital economy with innovative financial products that meet the unique needs of Filipino businesses,” Januszczak said.
