Ayala Corporation

Conglomerate

Ayala Corporation, Philippines' oldest conglomerate (founded 1834), operates real estate (Ayala Land), banking (BPI), telecommunications (Globe), water (Manila Water), and infrastructure. The family-controlled structure maintained across generations demonstrates successful succession planning and governance. Ayala's portfolio approach balances mature cash generators (real estate, banking) with growth investments (digital services, renewable energy).
