Across global boardrooms, gender representation remains uneven, with women occupying roughly one-third of senior management roles, according to Grant Thornton’s 2024 report. In the real estate sector, this disparity is even more pronounced, as a Bisnow study of 100 top-tier commercial real estate firms shows female representation dropping to just 27.5% in C-suite roles and around 33% on boards, highlighting a persistent “glass ceiling.”
Against this backdrop, PNB Holdings Corporation (PHC) stands out, with women holding five of nine board seats, 40% of the management committee, and 40% of the total workforce—well above global averages for the sector. This leadership composition not only reflects PHC’s commitment to gender diversity but also impacts operational performance, influencing capital deployment, development priorities, and commercial activity.
Research consistently links gender-diverse executive teams with stronger financial outcomes, exemplified by PHC’s 90% occupancy rate across PNB Makati Center and PNB Financial Center in 2025.
Strengthening governance, compliance, and equal opportunity policies in the same year further reinforces PHC’s position as a forward-moving and competitive force in Philippine real estate.
