Security Bank Corporation began 2026 with the opening of five new branches in January, expanding its nationwide footprint and bringing BetterBanking closer to more communities across the country.

The new branches strengthen the Bank’s presence in both Luzon and Mindanao, supporting growing regional economies and improving access to financial services for households, entrepreneurs, and small and medium enterprises.

In Mindanao, new branches in Zamboanga City and Bangkal, Davao enhance the Bank’s presence in key urban centers that serve regional trade and local enterprises.

In Luzon, the Bank expanded into Tayug, Pangasinan; Angeles, Pampanga; and Silang, Cavite, serving fast-growing communities and business districts in Central and Southern Luzon.

“These openings reflect our commitment to being present where growth is happening,” said Victor Lee Meng Teck, President and CEO of Security Bank. “As communities expand, we want to ensure that individuals and businesses have access to reliable banking services that support their goals.”

Leslie Cham, Executive Vice President and Branch Banking Group Head, added: “Our branch network remains an important part of how we serve customers. Each location is designed to work seamlessly with our digital platforms, offering both convenience and personalized service.”

With its network now at 383 branches nationwide, Security Bank continues to invest in enhancing the in-branch experience while strengthening its digital capabilities. New locations are designed to support a full range of financial needs—from everyday transactions to longer-term financing and wealth management solutions—providing customers with both accessibility and choice.
