Funds totalling about US$185 billion are expected to be invested into new business areas by conglomerates in the Philippines and Vietnam over the next 10 years, a report by S&P Global Ratings indicated. Of this amount, up to two-thirds are earmarked for spending in the infrastructure and renewable energy sectors, the Nov 5 report added. Analysts from the ratings agency evaluated the investment and funding needs of nine of the largest publicly listed conglomerates in the two South-east Asian countries. These included the Philippines’ Ayala Corporation, SM Investments Corporation (SMIC) and JG Summit, as well as Vietnam’s FPT Corporation, Hoa Phat Group and Vingroup.   https://www.businesstimes.com.sg/international/asean/philippine-vietnam-conglomerates-invest-us185-billion-fresh-ventures-over-next-decade (ICE SINGAPORE)
