Marla Garin-Alvarez, Vice President and Head of the Sustainability Office at BDO Unibank, emphasized the need for women to take charge of their financial journeys. “Empowering women goes beyond leadership roles—it’s about ensuring they have the financial knowledge and resources to secure their futures,” she said.
Joining her in the discussion were She Talks Asia co-founder Iza Calzado, moderator Riki Flores Reyes, and She Talks Asia co-chair and Miss Universe 2015 Pia Wurtzbach. Together, these women inspired Filipinas to dream big, lead with confidence, and take charge of their financial well-being.
