Manila Bulletin
|December 13, 2025
The Board of Investments (BOI) has approved a new batch of projects worth P26.43 billion for government incentives, as the agency races to hit its target of P1.75 trillion in investments for the year.
In a statement on Friday, Dec. 12, the BOI said it cleared 13 new projects totaling P26.43 billion during its management committee meeting this week.
These projects are expected to create 2,632 jobs nationwide, according to the investment promotion agency.
A bulk or 87 percent of these new jobs come from the approval of a service export project under the information technology and business process management (IT-BPM) sector.
The project will open additional service delivery centers across key urban areas in Luzon, ranging from global human resources (HR) solutions to remote staffing and business process services, bringing in a total of 1,300 new jobs.
Meanwhile, most investments are from the approval of large-scale solar and wind power projects, totaling over 320 megawatts of new generation capacity.
