It has historically delivered credit programs via branch networks and partner conduits, but has been modernizing its core banking infrastructure — most notably by adopting Oradian's cloud-based core banking system to scale MSME loan origination and management. Its lending mandate has expanded through chamber networks (PCCI partnership) and increasingly targets underserved segments including women entrepreneurs and returning OFWs.
