Pag-IBIG Fund recorded a 50% increase in investment income in the first four months of 2025, reflecting its prudent financial stewardship and growing capacity to support members' savings and housing needs.

The development affirms the agency's key role in advancing the Marcos administration’s agenda of strengthening government financial institutions and improving the lives of Filipino workers through responsive social benefits.

From January to April 2025, the agency earned P2.73 billion in investment income alone—significantly higher than the P1.81 billion posted during the same period in 2024—driven by strategic placements in bonds and other debt securities, money market instruments, equities, and investment properties.
