Recto sworn in as ES, Go as Finance chief

November 20, 2025

|

Manila Bulletin

President Marcos administered the oath of office of new Executive Secretary Ralph Recto and new Department of Finance (DOF) Secretary Frederick Go, formalizing key changes in his economic and administrative team.

- Argyll Cyrus Geducos

The two officials took their oaths at the Study Room in Malacañan on Wednesday, Nov. 19, two days after the Palace announced their appointments.

The Marcos administration's recent Cabinet shakeup came following allegations of the President's supposed involvement in budget insertions.

Recto, who headed the DOF, replaced former Chief Justice Lucas Bersamin as executive secretary. Go, on the other hand, served as Special Assistant to the President for Investment and Economic Affairs before his transfer to the DOF.

Presidential Communications Office Undersecretary Claire Castro had earlier said the President's selections reflect his push to strengthen institutions and improve coordination across government.

She cited Recto and Go's "strong policy, governance, and economic track records" as the basis for their appointment.
