30 Years of Going Further
Jerry Ngo, CEO of EastWest Bank shared EastWest’s storied journey over the past three decades, saying “At EastWest, we’ve always strived to go further for our clients, whose partnership we are always thankful for. This golfing event is just one of many examples of how we continue to cater to our valued customers and provide them with more than just banking services.”
“Our 30th anniversary is not just a celebration of our past achievements but a commitment to continue pushing boundaries and setting new standards in banking. This mission perfectly goes hand-in-hand with the bank’s anniversary theme, ‘Further for You,’ which encapsulates our dedication to innovation, customer-centric services, and community support,” Jerry Ngo added.
A Day of Celebration and Networking
The event began with lunch, followed by a ceremonial tee-off. Attendees had plenty of options—to either experience the golf course or take a tour of the Filinvest area. The evening program included a raffle, the announcement of tournament winners, and the official launch of Business Class. Perks for this new segment include discounted rates at select Filinvest properties, with more benefits to be announced in the coming months.
It was a memorable day of golf and networking, highlighting the synergy between EastWest and its sister companies under the Filinvest Group, Filigree and Filinvest Hospitality Corporation. The event emphasized the strong foundation and collaborative spirit that drive these entities to achieve excellence and foster innovation in their respective fields.
As a member of the Filinvest Group, EastWest continues to benefit from a robust support system that enhances its service offerings. The choice of Mimosa Plus, an FDC property, as the event venue further underscored this synergy, as participants were given a tour of Mimosa, showcasing the world-class facilities and hospitality services that are part of the Filinvest Group’s portfolio.
Looking Ahead
Jerry Ngo remarked on the bright future of the bank, stating that “Our commitment to our clients remains firm. As we celebrate 30 years, we look forward to many more years of innovation, excellence, and going further for our clients.”
