Metro Pacific Health Corporation (MPH), the country’s largest private hospital group, expanded its network to 31 hospitals through its acquisition of First United 23, Inc (“FU23”) which owns and operates United Doctors of St. Camillus de Lellis Hospital and Medical Center (“UDCMC”) and United Doctors of St. Camillus de Lellis Mabini General Hospital (“UDCMGH”) on June 30, 2026.

GIV Capital served as the Sellers’ Advisor and Arranger of the transaction involving the sale of two hospitals together, which marks the strategic entry of MPH into  Batangas Province. As of June 2026, UDCMC in Batangas City is the only hospital in the province that is Acute Stroke Ready, operates a fully functional Cardiac Catheterization Laboratory, and offers Nuclear Medicine services. UDCMGH, on the other hand, is the only private hospital serving the Municipality of Mabini.   FU23 was founded in 2010 by 22 physicians and 1 businessman.  “From the beginning, our vision as Founders was to build a hospital that would challenge the status quo and provide quality, advanced, and compassionate healthcare to the Batangas community,” said Dr. Ferdinand Moraleja, former President and one of the hospital’s founding members. “We are proud of what our hospitals have achieved and the strong foundation built by our Founders, doctors, employees, and shareholders. This partnership with MPH allows us to build on that foundation and bring our hospitals to even greater heights”.

In May 2025, GIV Capital arranged for Country Funders Finance Corporation its introductory cross-border funding via a USD 5 million loan facility from Singapore-based impact lender Saison Investment Management. CFFC is among the leading financing companies in the Philippines with a fast-growing portfolio focused on rolling out tailor-fit financing solutions for rural communities across the country.

This is the second significant funding milestone that the firm has facilitated for CFFC, after arranging the company’s maiden issuance to the domestic capital markets in 2020. This new partnership with a reputable international lender will bring forth wider recognition for CFFC as a preferred destination for capital looking to have a meaningful impact on unbanked and financially underserved Filipino households.

Metro Pacific Health Corporation (“MPH”), the Philippines’ largest private hospital group, acquired a controlling stake in Diliman Doctors Hospital, Inc. (“DDHI”) on October 10, 2024.  DDHI is a young and fast-growing hospital, having just started operations in 2018 and establishing itself as the ‘hospital of choice’ in Northern Quezon City. DDHI has a built-up capacity of 165 beds, sitting on close to 5,000 sqm of land fronting Commonwealth Avenue and more than 16,000 sqm behind it for surface parking and future expansion.

DDHI is MPH’s 26th hospital investment in the country, and the 5th hospital sale transaction arranged by GIV Capital acting as the Sellers’ Advisor.  GIV Capital’s role in DDHI’s development began in 2019 by arranging a Php1.0Billion 10yr term loan facility, which proved instrumental for the Hospital’s growth despite the COVID-19 pandemic. The sale by the Founders came after a humble realization that the capital and operational expertise needed to fully actualize the grand vision for DDHI may well be beyond their personal capabilities and called for a strong institutional partner like MPH.

To support the Company in its mission of addressing the country’s massive housing backlog, GIV Capital was engaged to arrange suitable funding to help Primeworld scale up and tackle larger projects. In 2023, GIV Capital facilitated an agreement with Security Bank Corporation, one of the leading universal banks in the country, to provide Php800 million in long-term debt to support the aggressive multi-year capex program of Primeworld.

Metro Pacific Health Corporation (MPH), the country’s leading private hospital network, completed on October 25, 2023, the acquisition of a 60.88% stake in Lucena United Doctors, Inc. (LUDI), owner and operator of Lucena United Doctors Hospital and Medical Center (LUDHMC), following its launching of a Tender Offer for the balance 39.12% stake held by LUDI’s other shareholders.  GIV Capital acted as the Advisor to the majority selling shareholders and Arranger of the transaction.

Ada Manufacturing Corporation (Adamco) is a nationwide distributor of agricultural machinery including combine harvesters, tractors, and transplanters.  From its origins in the rice-growing province of Isabela in northern Luzon, Adamco has expanded its presence to all fertile farmlands around the country as it pursues the grand vision of uplifting the lives of farmers through mechanization.

This pursuit received a boost by the enactment of the Rice Tariffication Law in 2019, which allowed the national government to engage with the private sector to procure sorely needed agricultural equipment and distribute them directly to farmers in key regions.  Recognizing the need for outside funding to meet the growing needs of the market, Adamco engaged GIV Capital in 2021 to arrange a Php1.5 Billion loan syndication in a challenging credit environment still reeling from the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic.

The Development Bank of the Philippines, Security Bank Corporation, and KEB Hana Manila Branch were successfully tapped to provide Adamco the required capital.  Over and above the immediate requirement, the relationship forged between Adamco and a government financial institution, a private blue chip universal bank, and a multinational bank provides Adamco with a diverse and well-connected funding base that will serve it well in the long term.

The Development Bank of the Philippines, Land Bank of the Philippines, and UnionBank of the Philippines provided long-term funding in support of the landmark project.

Makati Life has been recognized as the the Public-Private Healthcare Partnership of the year for the Philippines by Healthcare Asia Awards 2022.

Following approval from the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP), in March 2019, City Savings Bank, Inc. (CSB) of the UnionBank group completed the merger with PR Savings Bank (PRSB), with CSB as the surviving entity.  CSB acquired 100% ownership of PRSB, then the 15th largest thrift bank in terms of assets, from the Ropali Group of Companies.   The acquisition enabled CSB’s entry into the burgeoning market of motorcycle financing.

The Ropali Group is a Pasig-based mid-sized conglomerate, and is among the leading motorcycle dealers and agricultural machinery traders in the Philippines.  GIV Capital advised the Ropali Group on the sale of 100% common ownership in PRSB to CSB for Php6.1Billion.
