Dominion Holdings, Inc. (formerly BDO Leasing & Finance, Inc. or BLFI) reported a net income of P69.3 million in 2022 vs. P43.5 million in 2021. Gross income surged by 122% to P126.8 million, boosted by gains on its Unit Investment Trust Fund (UITF) investment. The firm has shifted its funds to higher yielding short-term time deposits to take advantage of rising interest rates.
