Security Bank hosts exclusive events for VIP clients
Security Bank is focusing on providing special experiences for its VIP clients. These clients often seek memorable events rather than just accumulating more wealth. This weekend, the bank is hosting the Security Bank Polo Cup at the exclusive Manila Polo Club. Many prominent figures from business and politics are expected to attend this celebrated event. In other news, Filipino gamers will soon face higher costs due to a new 12-percent sales tax on digital services from popular platform Steam. This tax will start in June and is part of the government's initiative to tax digital offerings. While the tax will apply to goods from Steam, it may not affect games sold through the Nintendo eShop and PlayStation Store due to different account setups. Meanwhile, Arnold Atienza, who had planned to enter the political arena with former Manila Mayor Isko Moreno, has chosen a different path. He is now leading the Philippine Fiber Industry Development Authority after being appointed by Agriculture Secretary Francisco Tiu Laurel Jr. Atienza aims to improve the fiber industry but is stepping away from active politics for now. Lastly, Converge ICT Solutions is looking to increase its subscriber base, currently at 2.5 million. The company hopes to reach 4 million subscribers by 2027. They are targeting lower-income customers with new brands like Surf2Sawa and BIDA Fiber. With new fiber cable systems on the way, Converge is optimistic about achieving its goals.
