MANILA — LANDBANK capped off 2025 with the inauguration of a new corporate center and five branches and branch-lites nationwide, strengthening its commitment to broaden financial access and bring essential banking services closer to communities.

Throughout December, the Bank opened new facilities in key growth areas: the Initao Branch in Misamis Oriental on December 12; the Tanjay Branch-lite in Negros Oriental on December 15; the Glan Branch in Sarangani on December 19; and both the Bayombong Branch in Nueva Vizcaya and the Pagudpud Branch-lite in Ilocos Norte on December 22. The Bank also inaugurated the Isabela Corporate Center, enhancing its operational presence in Northern Luzon.

“By expanding our touchpoints, LANDBANK continues to ensure that financial services remain accessible, inclusive, and responsive to the evolving needs of our clients—especially in the countryside. These new facilities reflect our sustained commitment to empower local economies and support national development,” said LANDBANK President and CEO Lynette V. Ortiz.

The newly inaugurated facilities extend LANDBANK’s presence across Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao, enabling the Bank to serve more farmers, fishers, micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs), employees, and local government units (LGUs).

Aligned with its digital transformation initiatives, the new branches and branch-lites are designed to deliver a “phygital” banking experience, integrating physical service points with digital innovations. The facilities feature automated teller machines (ATMs), digital onboarding systems, enhanced queuing mechanisms, and other technology-enabled services for faster, more convenient, and secure transactions.

Through its expanding network, LANDBANK continues to support government programs, including social protection disbursements, salary loans for employees, and credit assistance for priority sectors, contributing to inclusive growth and countryside development.

LANDBANK’s full-service branches offer a comprehensive range of banking services for individuals, businesses, farmers, and fishers, while branch-lites provide key deposit and government disbursement services in underserved areas. The Corporate Center serves as a one-stop shop, housing various banking and financial services under a single roof while supporting regional operational, administrative, and service delivery functions.

As of December 2025, LANDBANK operates a nationwide network of 615 branches and branch-lites, supported by 3,268 LANDBANK ATMs, 3,882 partner 7-Eleven ATMs, 236 Cash Deposit Machines (CDMs), and 1,001 LANDBANKasama Partners nationwide.

Moving into 2026, LANDBANK plans to open 15 new branches and branch-lites across the country, focusing on providing accessible and responsive banking services to communities with limited access to financial services.

LANDBANK is the largest development financial institution in the Philippines, promoting financial inclusion, digital transformation, and sustainable national development in all 82 provinces of the country.
