Asian Consulting Group’s (ACG) 2025 International Tax and Investment Conference (ITIC) is set for March 26, bringing together global leaders, policymakers, and industry experts to discuss tax reforms, sustainable tourism, and Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) investing in the Philippines.
With the theme “FAST Forward 2025,” the event will focus on policies that drive Foreign direct investment, Accountability, Sustainability, and Tourism (FAST). Discussions will highlight how these areas contribute to economic growth and long-term development.
Ahead of the conference, ACG hosted a media event on March 13, where it honored Atty. Loida Nicolas Lewis with the Global Excellence and Lifetime Achievement Award for her contributions to business and governance. Actress and environmental advocate Bea Binene, who will serve as the ITIC 2025 moderator, spoke about the importance of sustainability in investments and policy reforms.
The media conference offered a preview of ITIC 2025’s agenda, including discussions on the Global Minimum Tax (GMT) and its effects on international business, digital taxation, and investment incentives under the Philippine government’s CREATE MORE Act. The event will also examine strategies for making the Philippines a competitive destination for responsible tourism.
Secretary Frederick Go, Special Assistant to the President for Investment and Economic Affairs, is among the featured speakers. He will discuss policy initiatives, investment opportunities, and how the CREATE MORE Act can attract foreign investors. The World Bank will present an economic briefing on global market trends and investment prospects.
Asian Consulting Group’s tax conference will also showcase FAST industries — Fashion, Film & Arts, AI, Food & Agriculture, Sustainable Cities & Communities, and Travel & Tourism — through expert panels featuring organizations such as the OECD, World Bank, IMF, UN, Asean, and industry leaders.
